Justice League of America #90
In "Plague of the Pale People," the Justice League of America confronts a crisis born from environmental recklessness when a U.S. military disposal of poison gas devastates the oceanic Proof-Rock of the Pale People, triggering their violent retaliation against Atlantis. Written by Mike Friedrich and brought to life with dynamic art by Dick Dillin and Joe Giella, this 1971 issue blends Cold War-era anxiety with underwater intrigue, all framed by Carmine Infantino and Murphy Anderson’s striking cover.
