"The Nail, Book One" marks a pivotal moment in the Justice League of America: The Nail The Complete Collection, featuring a gripping tale written and illustrated by Alan Davis, with inks by Mark Farmer, colors by Patricia Mulvihill, and letters by Pat Prentice. When Wonder Woman and Hawkwoman are captured by Luthor’s Liberators, Green Lantern’s ring uncovers a shocking truth: they’re not machines, but cloned Kryptonian replicants. As the JLA races to free them, Lois uncovers Luthor’s dark discovery—Kal-El’s ship and traces of his DNA used to create the Liberators. In Smallville, Jimmy, whose body now bears Kryptonian DNA, is drawn into the conflict, leading to a devastating confrontation with a mysterious Amish man whose arrival changes everything. The cover, by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer, captures the tension of this explosive chapter.

Wonder Woman and Hawkwoman are subdued by Luthor's Liberators, but Green Lantern’s ring reveals that they are not robots, but cloned Kryptonian replicants. While the JLAers release their compatriots, Lois discovers that Luthor found Kal-El's ship and traces of his DNA from which he created the Liberators. In Smallville, Jimmy, who has been grafted with Kryptonian DNA, joins the Liberators in the fight with the JLA. When a mysterious Amish man tries to stop the fight, Jimmy incinerates his parents. The Amish man and Jimmy fight until Jimmy's Kryptonian DNA graft fails and he crumbles to dust.
