The following year, Superman meets Wonder Woman in Indochina, where she celebrates with a group of women she rescued from political rebels. The Amazon allowed them to exact their own brand of fatal justice upon their captors, which Superman is horrified to learn. He reminds Diana that the government is distrustful at best of the heroes, which has led to the Justice Society's disbanding and Hourman's death, as well as Batman's branding as a fugitive vigilante. Superman also tries to remind her that mitigating the general public's fear is why they signed loyalty oaths to the United States government. Diana, however, resolves that she must do what she feels is right. The two part at odds, and Diana later leaves America to return to Paradise Island. Superman later confides in Lois about Wonder Woman and Batman, neither of whom, he says, would sacrifice their principles for each other. He then goes on to say that things have gotten worse ever since Senator McCarthy came along, to which Lois replies that there will always be boogeymen like the Senator and that the nation's heroes need to be strong and stand up for everything that America symbolizes.

This ideal of embracing a brighter future is best shown in the small but amazingly well written subplot for Batman. He believes in justice and will go to any lengths to achieve it but when his original suit terrified a young boy, he decides it is time for an overhaul.
It's the mid-1950s, and America's Cold War pathologies, conformity, and anti-Communist paranoia have even turned against the nation's superheroes, forcing many of them to go underground -- all except Superman, who took a loyalty oath to the U.S. government. But the Flash is berated for keeping his identity secret (and wearing a politically suspect red costume), Batman is a fugitive, and Wonder Woman (as she helps some oppressed peasants in a far-off place called Vietnam) complains that her adoptive country is not as dedicated to truth, justice, and the American Way as it used to be. But the Justice League pulls together again to fight the rise of "the Center," a powerful ancient life-form pre-dating the dinosaurs, who has also decided that humanity is a planetary nuisance and decides to eradicate humankind altogether.
