"Starro the Conqueror!" kicks off a thrilling Silver Age reimagining of the Justice League with a pulse-pounding mystery that begins when the team’s powers vanish mid-crisis. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life by Mike Sekowsky’s dynamic art, this standout issue sees the JLA chasing bizarre thefts tied to ancient creatures—only to face the chilling, power-stealing Amazo in a showdown that tests their resolve. With Bernard Sachs’ inks and Gaspar Saladino’s crisp lettering, the story unfolds with classic flair, while Michael Cho’s striking cover captures the tension of the moment.
