A massive hardcover collecting JLA's earliest adventures from 1960-1964. This begins with the three Brave and the Bold appearances, then moves into the JLA's own long-running title, with wonderful covers by Murphy Anderson and interior art by Mike Sekowsky and Bernard Sachs. Many of the covers and stories here are icons of the early Silver Age, including the first cross-overs with the 1940s Justice Society, and lots of iconic villains. And all this starring all the newly-recreated Silver Age DC heroes: The Flash, Green Lantern, The Atom and Martian Manhunter. And the continuing DC Comics icons: Wonder Woman, Superman, Green Arrow, Aquaman. Later on we are joined by The Black Canary, Dr. Midnite.
Gardner Fox, prolific DC writer in the 1940s and author of many of the original Justice Society stories, is here writing EVERY story here. How's THAT for continuity? Includes the famous stories "Crisis on Earth-One," "Crisis on Earth-Two," and "Crisis on Earth-Three."

As much as any writer, Gardner Fox helped create the tone and feel of the Batman stories of the 1960s. Fox was an attorney who began his prolific and innovative second career as a writer in the late 1930s on Batman and went on to create such Golden Age classics as the original Flash, Hawkman, Starman, Doctor Fate, and the Justice Society of America. His influence extended throughout the 1950s and 1960s when, until his retirement from DC Comics in 1968, he created and/or wrote such memorable features as the Justice League of America, Adam Strange, the Atom, Hawkman, and, of course, Batman, all under the auspices of legendary comics editor Julius Schwartz. Until his death in 1986, Gardner Fox continued writing comics and novels. He published over 100 books in numerous genres, some under the pseudonyms of Jefferson Cooper and Bart Sommers, as well as many fantasy novels under his own name.
