At the same time, in Action Comics Superman had been split in half by a villain named Lord Satanis. In that storyline, Superman met the Omega Men and ended up introducing them to the New Teen Titans right when Blackfire captured Starfire. In New Teen Titans #23, the same issue where Superman tells Robin his powers had been halved, there's a footnote explaining that the satellite is empty because of the events in JLA #207. Then where did the Superman in JLA come from? Earth-CE? (for Continuity Error) Or am I the only person that thinks of things like these?MatthewZDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547677475518970227.post-84431861924598507702008-06-23T13:00:00.000-04:002008-06-23T13:00:00.000-04:00So many childhood memories here.

My first encounters with the Crime Syndicate (an EVIL JLA?!? Wow!!) and Per Degaton, as well as the very first place I ever learned about the Cuban Missle Crisis (I was 10 when these issues came out).<BR/><BR/>I took JLA #207 to summer camp with me and read it constantly.John Trumbullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02231892112043419921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547677475518970227.post-10686350075587979502008-06-23T08:54:00.000-04:002008-06-23T08:54:00.000-04:00This was another favorite story of mine as a kid. ...This was another favorite story of mine as a kid. It was great to finally see Aquaman in a JLA/JSA crossover. He was always my favorite growing up. And teaming with Starman when they did the usual 'break into teams' thing made that even better, as he's my favorite JSA member.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547677475518970227.post-48739759963171040512008-06-23T07:31:00.000-04:002008-06-23T07:31:00.000-04:00I really liked this crossover.

I don't think the second run of JSA in All Star actually crossed over (though it did lead into the Mr Terrific death storyline in Adventure), so I thought DC missed the boat on having the books show us the crossover from both sides. (but then again, it seemed like back then that DC didn't like the JSA anyway...)<BR/>I loved the Crime Syndicate (I happed to have been able to pick up their first appearances a few years back and was quite happy with it) and thought they presented a good challenge to the JLA. (also under used IMHO) And the team work used to save the JLA members falling through the atmosphere was good as well. <BR/>Seriously though, Rob's made me think. Why didn't someone in the JLA or JSA say "look every time we get together something bad happens. Let's at least try and move it to Earth 2 or better yet, just hit the beach!" :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436072451281843290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6547677475518970227.post-32810588323714902792008-06-23T06:38:00.000-04:002008-06-23T06:38:00.000-04:00I liked this story in theory, but in execution it ...I liked this story in theory, but in execution it left a lot to be desired. The entire All Star Squadron chapter you mention here consists of ONE page (ONE!!!) where the Squadron members walk in on the JSA. And the JLA are NO WHERE to be found. That's a team-up? Otherwise it was a normal issue of All Star Squadron. I remember being very disappointed when I first read it. (Of course, its next issue was much much better. I LOVED seeing how Jerry Ordway drew the JLA.) Basically, the story didn't need five issues. I think the middle two were the ones with the meat of the story. Plus I never liked Per Degaton anyway, and Roy Thomas had a terrible tendency to over-write everything...! But I did like the heroes chosen. Now if it had been Hawkwoman instead of Hawkman that would have been awesome!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
