Featured Article
In the 2000s JSA comics, Courtney Whitmore (a.k.a. Stargirl) dated Billy Batson (a.k.a Captain Marvel) and was the only member of the team who knew his secret identity. However, Billy left the JSA because another member, Jay Garrick, expressed his concerns towards his relationship with Courtney without knowing that he was the same age as her, but Billy didn't wanted to reveal his identity to the rest of the team because his Wisdom of Solomon forbids him from doing so, which Billy regretted later on.
