* In "The Golden Age of Justice", Batman uses Per Degaton's Spear of Destiny to temporarily de-age the JSA, and Degaton says he'll send them to Valhalla. In PostCrisis continuity, the reason the JSA weren't ''quite'' as old as they should be was that they'd spent years in a dimension based on Norse mythology where they didn't age.
