The Justice Society is considered the first superhero team in American comic books, debuting ba💛ck in the Golden Age of the '40s, and they'll finally make their big-screen movie debut in October's upcoming Black Adam film. To set the stage for the movie and the Justice Society's film debut, DC will release a series of previously announced one-shot comic books titled Black Adam: The Justice Society Files themed around the members of the team who will appear in Black Adam.
