JSA #17
Description
JSA #17 pulls the iconic super-team into a city-wide crisis as a major threat stares down Gotham City. In this installment, writer Jeff Lemire reassembles a seasoned lineup and challenges them to trust each other enough to face an existential danger to the citizens of Gotham. Artist Gavin Guidry sustains a cinematic rhythm, delivering dynamic action, moody alleyways, and character moments that land with steady clarity. The story centers on cooperation under pressure, balancing veteran leadership with new allies as the team negotiates conflicting loyalties and tough choices. Across a suite of cover variants—by Dave Johnson, Matt Taylor, Symbol, and Diego Olortegui—the core narrative remains focused on teamwork, sacrifice, and the cost of heroism. This issue advances the ongoing JSA arc while standing on its own as a pulse-pounding chapter about courage when the city needs them most.
