the spirit of giving associated with the holidays, fan-favorite
creators Matthew Sturges and Freddie Williams II give the DC Universe
and comic readers a whole new Justice Society of America team this

Society of America,

original Justice Society to form their own team. Longtime Justice

the new series to check out who these heroes will be facing and how
their goals and tactics differ from those of the original Society.

AFTER THE FALL #28,
the noteworthy issue that sees Fables
writer
Bill Willingham pick up the reins of the title created by Buffy
