Description

This is a VERY special piece for me. The 1970's All-Star Comics revival of the JSA in the 1970's is what started my life-long love of the JSA. All-Star was cancelled with issue #74. Issue #75 was supposed to be the death of Batman! This story was serialized in Adventure Comics, and the cover turned into the splash page of Adventure #462. I asked Joe to re-imagine this with Batman and Catwoman looking down from on-high on Huntress, Robin, and the JSA. I love the classic touches Joe has added such as Flash's hat and Wonder Woman's skirt!

John -

this is stellar. Those issues are favorites of mine as well.

I know it's likely not possible because of copyright issues but you could easily release an art book with your JSA and related commissions. Easily one of the best collections I've seen.

Best,
Chris
