5. JSA: The Liberty File

…Batman and the JSA starred in an Indiana Jones movie?”

Okay, okay, that’s not the EXACT premise, but it’s about Batman, Hourman, Dr. Mid-Nite, and Mr. Terrific foiling a Nazi plan in the Middle East during WWII. That’s pretty Raiders of the Lost Ark-y, you guys.

So the actual story goes like this: The Joker, on his way to be interrogated by the US government, disappears in Cairo. Three JSA agents (Hourman, Dr. Mid-Nite, and Batman) are sent in to get him and the valuable information he carries out of the country. Meanwhile, a mysterious Nazi super-man is about to make his debut on the warfront and time is running out to come up with a way to stop him.

This one is just fun and pulpy start to finish. Along with a really great final reel twist that actually managed to impress me, this one also contains some truly great comedic moments. Batman burning his journal in front of Hourman when asked about it is maybe the comedic highlight of my week.
