Justice Society of America (Earth-2: Post-Crisis)

"Each of the JSA members had abilities, powers, tools, like your Cosmic Staff, and they used them to protect the world against people like Icicle."

- Pat Dugan to Courtney Whitmore

The Justice Society of America (JSA) are a team of vigilantes operating in the United States of America. It was founded in 1941, with Charles McNider as its leader, and was active until December 24, 2010, when most of its members were murdered in a battle with the Injustice Society of America. It was reformed in 2020 by Courtney Whitmore after she discovered the Cosmic Staff.

Foundation
The Justice Society of America was formed in 1941 by Dr. Charles McNider, the costumed vigilante known as Dr. Mid-Nite. He was eventually joined by numerous other heroes such as Doctor Fate, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl and Hawkman, Hourman, Johnny Thunder and the Thunderbolt, Sandman, The Flash, Wildcat, and The Spectre. They were also joined by Sylvester Pemberton after he became Starman, and he brought along his sidekick Stripesy as an unofficial member.

Injustice Society of America
They became enemies of the Injustice Society of America, who they fought several times. They ended up fighting and defeating numerous members such as Blackbriar Thorn, who was destroyed by Green Lantern in 1988, Per Degaton, who The Flash banished to an alternate timeline, and The Thinker, who was incarcerated by The Flash. Wildcat also became the primary enemy of Tigress. The Injustice Society later disbanded for unknown reasons.

The Devil in the Shadows
Several decades ago, explorer Bruce Gordon returned from Diablo Island after being possessed by a being from the Shadowlands known as Eclipso. Eclipso then used the appearance of Bruce as a child to lure Rebecca McNider into stealing some birthday presents so that he could kill her.

In response to her death, numerous members of the JSA including Sylvester, Ted, Rex, John, Pat, and Jay attended her funeral and discussed ways to deal with this new threat, while Doctor Fate, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, Hawkman and The Spectre went to confront Eclipso. However, they failed to defeat him and so the JSA was forced to vote on whether to kill Bruce, in order to imprison Eclipso within the Black Diamond, after Sylvester was told this was the only way by The Shade. Sylvester, Ted, and Rex voted in favour of this whereas Pat and Jay voted against, and so the group who voted in favour went to his home and murdered him.

Christmas Eve Battle
After this decision, the JSA began to break apart and went their separate ways until the Injustice Society reformed years later. On December 24, 2010, the ISA lured the team into a battle at an abandoned mansion, where several members were killed. Hawkgirl, Hawkman and Johnny Thunder were killed by Brainwave, Sandman, and Wildcat were killed by unknown assailants, Starman was supposedly killed by Icicle but later showed up alive, Dr. Mid-Nite was sent to the Shadowlands by The Shade, Hourman survived the battle only to later be killed by Solomon Grundy, and The Flash travelled to Earth-Prime. This leaves the fates of Doctor Fate, Green Lantern, and The Spectre unknown.

Modern Age
In 2020, Courtney Whitmore gained the Cosmic Staff and worked with ex-JSA ally, Pat Dugan to fight the ISA.

A few weeks later, Pat brought Courtney to the JSA Headquarters and showed her the history of the JSA. Later that night, Courtney sneaked into the headquarters and stole various JSA relics. Soon, she started recruiting new members as successors to recreate the JSA.
