Tom versus the JLA, number 235, or I was pretty sure Aquaman was going to rip his shirt off as well.

Welcome back for Justice League of America, number 235, the February 1984 issue entitled Rebirth 3, Heavy Metal, written by Jerry Conway, with pencils by Chuck Patton.

Mike Macklin is the anchor, John Costanza the letter, Gene D DeAngelo, the colors, Alan Gold editor featuring a cover by Chuck Patton, and Dick Giordano. We opened this issue with the same type of prolog, a bunch of dinosaurs, speak about dominance of earth, something blows up the dinosaurs. It's the Overmaster we get it, we understand. We then cut to the Justice League's secret headquarters in Detroit

and one of the many warehouses that look abandoned in Detroit,

where Aquaman is throwing a hissy fit.

It appears that the morning news stations have caught hold of the footage of Vixen

into the Justice League headquarters. Security sucks, apparently, and she's wondering how

they're going to help her if they can't

even get themselves together i also noticed that sue dibney is wearing a nice uh incredibly short shorts cowboy

boots outfit she's quite the hipster aquaman calls steel an idiot saying that the reasons don't matter. Steel freaks out they have a bit of a

confrontation and Aquaman eventually calms down steel using telepathy. I can tell us telepathy because

there's little circles going out from his head to Steele's head and that is a real dick move from

Aquaman.

Of all the heroes, who else would use telepathy to sort of shut up one of their co-team members who they don't agree with?

I mean, Aquaman's turned into quite a tool.

Steel walks away, dazed, Martian Man Hunter looks suspicious as if he's picked up on what's
