''Justice, Inc.'' is a role-playing game designed to simulate the adventure stories in the pulp magazines of the 1930s. It was one of the first non-superhero applications of the point-based game system that had been developed for the ''Champions'' superhero game. The generalized point system would eventually be published as the Hero System, following in the footsteps of Chaosium's ''Basic Role-Playing'' System, but preceding ''GURPS'' as a non-genre-specific game system. ==Publishing History== ''Justice, Inc.'' was published in July 1984 by Hero Games, and was written by Aaron Allston, Steve Peterson and Michael Stackpole. The two-volume set included a rulebook and campaign book containing a discussion of the pulp genre, the "Empire Club" campaign setting, a timeline of real-world events of the 1920s and '30s, and several pulp adventures. Two supplements were published: * ''Lands of Mystery'' (May 1985), a critically acclaimed sourcebook describing how to design and run "Lost World" adventures, like those found in the fiction of Edgar Rice Burroughs and H. Rider Haggard. ISBN 0-917481-60-7 * ''Trail of the Gold Spike'' (August 1984), an adventure set around a Colorado gold mine. Both were written by Allston, and also included statistics for ''Chill'', ''Call of Cthulhu'' and ''Daredevils''. Unlike several other products in the "Hero" line, ''Justice, Inc.'' was not revised or republished in the decades after its release. However, Hero Games finally published a ''Pulp Hero'' genre book that covers much of the same ground at the end of 2005. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Justice, Inc.
