Comments:
Superman is the chairman of the JLA meeting in this story.
The Justice League members learn Green Arrow's secret identity in this story.
Synopsis:
Green Arrow discovers that Dr. Destiny is again impersonating a member of the Justice League, and pretends to quit the team in order to flush out the imposter. In independent efforts to discover the reason for Green Arrow's resignation, the other members (except Wonder Woman) disguise themselves as the archer. Each then encounters an arch-enemy, who defeats the hero, then changes appearances with him, so that the villains go free, while the police imprison the defeated heroes.
Actually, each of the villains is Dr. Destiny in a materioptikon-induced disguise. The real Green Arrow learns Destiny's plot, and is present as Oliver Queen to foil the villain's attack on the Atom. He then changes the JLA members back to their usual appearances, and has them released from jail.
Meeting at the Secret Sanctuary, the heroes are attacked by the villains who Destiny had impersonated: the Penguin, Dr. Light, Lex Luthor, the Tattooed Man, Cutlass Charlie, Captain Boomerang, Mr. I.Q., and Jason Woodrue. After a wild battle, the villains are defeated, and the identity of the member who had been impersonated is revealed – the Atom. Hawkman uncovers this when he realizes that the Atom had been the first to arrive at the meeting at which Green Arrow resigned – but Atom can never arrive first, since he travels through the telephone lines, and someone must be present to life the receiver and admit him.
