This story takes place back in Elizabethan England. The boys have been captured and are being tortured by Savage and Faust. Rora returns and uses her magic to rescue them, the magic creatures of Rora's forest disguise themselves as the Justice League, as seen in the boys' memories, they draw the villains out to fight. Rora uses the distraction to describe the Doom Scroll and sends them on their way.
Story - 4: This was definitely a Saturday morning cartoon issue. It is fun and imaginative, great for younger kids, but still fun for adults.
Art - 5: The art, aside from a few wonky character designs, is light and fun. Perfect for the story.
