#9.11 - Absolute Justice, Pt. I: Society

What's the "J.S.A."?

That's right nerds, it's time for the golden age heroes to make their Smallville debut. After the Star-Spangled Kid and the Sandman are murdered by a villain named "The Icicle", the gang gets together in order to find out why he is picking off retired heroes one-by-one. As Oliver pursues a high school girl, Clark and Chloe bust out the Daily Planet archives to learn that this team of heroes were framed for crimes they never committed. That team's name is The Justice Society of America.

Wesley MacInnes, Jim Shield, Ken Lawson, Britt Irvin, Michael Shanks and Brent Stait make special guest appearances as DC Comics original characters Cameron Mahkent ("The Icicle"), Sylvester Pemberton ("Star-Spangled Kid"), Wesley Dodds ("Sandman"), Courtney Whitmore ("Stargirl"), Carter Hall ("Hawkman") and Kent Nelson ("Dr. Fate"), respectively.

Other DC Comics character cameos include Ted Grant ("Wildcat"), Al Pratt ("The Atom"), Jay Garrick ("The Flash"), Abigail Hunkel ("Red Tornado") and Alan Scott ("Green Lantern").
