This one-hour special tells the story of the greatest superhero team of the Golden Age.
Before the Justice League, before Batman and Superman, there were already heroes and a team that brought together the best of them: the Justice Society of America.
Years after its founding, the JSA (Flash, Green Lantern, Wildcat, Doctor Fate, Black Canary, Hawkgirl, Hawkman, Atom, Doctor Mid-Nite, Sandman/other members who are not currently part of the team are mentioned) faces a dangerous threat when they are recruited to stop Vandal Savage from finding the Spear of Destiny.
It is up to these heroes to show the meaning of the word heroism.
In the end, we see a present-day meeting between Jay Garrick, Alan Scott, and Ted, reminiscing about old times. However, the reunion is interrupted by the arrival of Doctor Fate, who warns that they need to reunite the JSA.
