JLA: Shogun of Steel is a prestige format comic book one-shot from DC's Elseworlds imprint, published in 2002. It was written by Ben Raab, with art by Justiniano. [1] [2]

Plot

A rocketship from an exploding planet Krypton lands not in Smallville, but rather war-torn 14th century feudal Japan. When the baby from Krypton grows into a man, Hoshi, he is convinced by a ragtag band of warriors - Elseworlds versions of the Flash, Hawkman, and Batgirl, among others - to join a rebellion against the oppressive and cunning "Shogun of Steel".
