Johnny Peril became the lead feature with issue #107, when the theme of the comic changed to more supernational/mystery than superhero. The title was changed to "Sensation Mystery" with #110 and ran for another seven issues.

It was used again in 1999 as the title for one issue of the "Justice Society Returns" storyline. This storyline was a top votegetter for the Comics Buyer's Guide Fan Award for Favorite Story for 2000.
