Assisting in a battle between Superman and Brainiac he tries to stop an energy weapon made of Kryptonite from hitting Superman.
The energy burst sends him running through time guided by the voice of Doctor Fate.
Confused The Flash is even more disoriented when he meets Wonder Woman and her fellow Justice Society members: the original Flash, Hawkman, Hourman and the original Black Canary, in the heat of battle in Europe.
At first the Justice Society (especially Wonder Woman) are suspicious of Barry’s story of coming from the future but they eventually capitulate and invite him to become part of the team after he saves Steve Trevor and some civilians.
The new team battles Adolph Hitler's Nazi and discovers the mad dictator has a secret weapon up his sleeve that he hopes will end in victory for the Nazi.
What the Justice Society encounters is not at all what they expect.
With great character voice talent, impressive animation and soundtrack and a solid story Justice Society World War II is one of the best of the ‘new’ DC animated films direct-to-DVD releases from Warner Bros.
It successfully introduces current DC Comic Book readers to the heroes of the past but also raises a few questions.
Why World War II? Why are The Justice Society’s exploits unknown in modern times and what relationship has Barry have with the team?
Look for a few more surprises, including some cameos and plot twists.
Included in the 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray/Digital Code Combo Pack are a Kamandi: The Last Boy On Earth Showcase Short, several featurettes, two classic Bonus Cartoons and a Sneak Peek at the next DC animated film.
