The Police are stunned and mystified with five separate crimes, each resulting in a death, and each being blamed on (by the suspects) by infamous villain in history. All the suspects are quickly tried, convicted and sentenced to death. To make matters worse, when six members of the JSA investigate, they are actually killed by the villains blamed for the other crimes! A dying Johnny Thunder sends his companion, the Black Canary, to JSA HQ to report all that has gone on to Wonder Woman.
