The first ever appearance of Wonder Woman! Diana descended on the Capitol intending to use her magic lasso to get the senators to tell the truth, leading to this conflict with the G-men. Wonder Woman was created by William Moulton Marston, who is often credited with inventing the lie detector test!

The guy in the comic is the Red Hood, who is the resurrected Robin, the version the readers voted to kill. Comic Book death is never final. Here he is getting his butt kicked by Forerunner, and agent of the Monitors, who are pissed about Robin being resurrected and messing up the continuity, much like the people being pissed about the bailout bill being resurrected.
