It's Adventure Sunday!
The Justice League of America's final "try out" issue of The Brave and the Bold features the introduction of yet another classic villain. Two, actually:

The Flash, on his way to taking on the Mirror Master, finds himself momentarily without his powers! Luckily the strange occurrence only lasts for a few seconds, too fast for anyone else to notice. The same thing happens to Green Lantern, Woman, and, yes, Aquaman:

As you might expect, The Flash and Martian Manhunter are defeated as well, leaving all of them to find themselves prisoner of Amazo and his creator, Professor Ivo:

As you can see from the final page, DC knew when it had a hit on its hands, and immediately promoted the Justice League to their own title. Aquaman's inclusion to the team transformed the character from a dependable, if relatively unremarked, second-stringer to one of the company's top-tier characters. Aqua-History would never be the same!

Ah, the debut of Amazo, the "one-man Justice League." Still wonder how Prof. Ivo managed to "replicate" magical stuff like Wonder Woman's lasso...
