-  * At the stroke of midnight, Commander Steel is given a signal that triggers Baron Blitzkrieg's posthypnotic command to assassinate both Roosevelt and Churchill at the White House. The All-Star Squadron stops him and brings him out of the spell, and Commander Steel joins the All-Star Squadron. The feedback damages Baron Blitzkrieg, who is later brought back to Berlin by his dwarf aide, Zwerg.

 +  * January 1-5: Dr. Wilfred Doome, a self-proclaimed great scientist, uses a time machine to bring five of the greatest conquerors of all time to the present and engages them to seek out the five rarest metals on Earth, all to help him build a machine that will open the gate to the future. The Seven Soldiers of Victory overhear their plans and plan to stop them. At the U.S.-Canada border, the Star-Spangled Kid and Stripesy battle Napoleon, who tries to steal a gold shipment. At the Florida Everglades, Green Arrow and Speedy battle Alexander the Great, who tries to steal robots powered by radium, which were invented by scientist Leo Starr. In Alaska, the Shining Knight battles Genghis Khan, who tries to steal a platinum shipment. In South Dakota, the Vigilante and Billy Gunn battle Attila the Hun, who tries to steal Tantalum. At sea, the Crimson Avenger and Wing battle Nero, who tries to seize a shipment of uranium. Regrouping, the Seven Soldiers converge on Dr. Doome's tower on Long Island, but Doome escapes into the past. Speedy grabs a time-rod, and the team steps into the time machine, only to arrive in the 12th century B.C. during the siege of Troy, where they meet Ulysses. When Doome returns to the present, Speedy uses the time-rod to return the team there also. Then, when Doome escapes into the future, the time machine blows up, but the team survives.

-  * October 26: A giant menace called the Nebula-Man (the transformed Dr. Wilfred Gwythyr Doome) walks over the world, conquering everyone who tries to stop him, and killing many people. Finally, the Seven Soldiers of Victory come out of retirement to stop the Nebula-Man in the Himalayas near Mount Everest. The Seven Soldiers battle the Nebula-Man, giving them enough time to construct the Nebula-Rod, which gathers nebuloid-energy from space to channel against the opposing nebula threat. Wing How uses the new secret weapon to destroy the Nebula-Man, sacrificing his life in the process, though in reality he is taken to the Nebula-Man's realm. Holy men from a nearby temple who witnessed the battle place Wing's body in a grave. The destruction of the Nebula-Man causes each of the Seven Soldiers of Victory to be sent into a different era in the past. //Note: It is not known if the Hand had anything to do with the appearance of the Nebula-Man, but he eventually learned how to create his own construction of nebuloid-energy, since he threatens the Earth with it in 1972.// ["The Unknown Soldier of Victory," Justice League of America #100 (August, 1972).]+  * October 26: A giant menace called the Nebula-Man (the transformed Dr. Wilfred Gwythyr Doome) walks over the world, conquering everyone who tries to stop him, and killing many people.
