** There is also a more meta tear jerker there. Stargirl is based on the sister of Creator/GeoffJohns, who wrote ''JSA'' (and ''Stars & STRIPE''); she died on flight [=TWA800=]. It makes for tears to see this character go from a bit of a brat into a competent reliable mentor-ish hero and remember that he wrote her after his sister.
* The story "Out of Time", which chronicles the final moments of the [[spoiler:third]] ComicBook/{{Hourman}} as he sacrifices himself to preserve the timeline and the universe [[spoiler:and to give the first and second Hourmen a chance to be a family again.]]
