Six years after Baron Blitzkrieg's defeat, the JSA is an institution. They've gone from a secret unit to national celebrities, but fame comes at a price. In the United States of 1976, the JSA is bound by government contracts, ethics committees, and a bureaucracy that prevents them from acting with the same speed as before.
As the nation prepares for the Bicentennial, an ancient evil that science cannot explain begins to fester: Mordru. The "Lord of Chaos" doesn't attack with armies, but by corrupting the country's mystical infrastructure. His target is the Helm of Nabu, the source of Fate's power, which Mordru sees as the only lock preventing him from devouring reality.
The JSA must decide whether to follow the rules of a government that uses them for propaganda or break their oaths to confront an entity that is erasing the population's sanity. The series explores the fall of idols: how the glare of the public spotlight ultimately burns out heroes.
