I've spend 30 days posting pics of what our comic heroes were made to do. Inspire us to fight evil. We don't all have to be out there beating up bad guys, but remember fighting evil starts small. Hold that door for someone, compliment your neighbor, do charity work. Remember, hate has no home here.

JSA for the Day - Special The Red Tornado is an android who was merged with a sentient tornado from the planet Rann (yeah, things got weird back in the silver age of comics). Despite his peculiar origin, he certainly knows right from wrong. Here he is beating up a guy with a silly mustache.
