Item Description
If you're at all a fan of the Golden Age superheroes of THE JUSTICE SOCIETY of AMERICA, this new tale of an untold adventure across 4 great issues of DC's 1985 mini-series, IS FOR YOU!Retro expert Roy Thomas, aided in the intricate plotting of this saga by his wife Danni, crafts a complex and believable exposé of the JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA being charged with treason after World War II was over and conspiring to cover up their secret alliances with HITLER during the conflict! The charges were brought by the US Government against the superhero group after the discovery of a secret diary kept by BATMAN prior to his death on EARTH-TWO.
The entire superhero team is put on trial in Congress (reminiscent of the McCarthy Hearings of the early 1950s) and their history is reviewed. All the historical adventures involving the JSA are recalled, and details are added to build the case against them.
Only a Golden Age expert like Roy Thomas could have created this master tale encompassing dozens of 1940s heroes, and used their exploits appearing in ALL-STAR COMICS, their team-ups chronicled in the pages of JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA, and even stories from their appearances in INFINITY INC.!
You probably couldn't name a Golden Age hero - or villain - that isn't depicted at some point in this mini-series! They're all here: WONDER WOMAN, THE FLASH, DR. MIDNITE, THE SPECTRE, THE ATOM, DR. FATE, JOHNNY THUNDER, WILDCAT and many more! And on the evil side, you'll see PSYCHO PIRATE, VANDAL SAVAGE, ICICLE, THE FIDDLER, . . . and even ADOLPH HITLER!
And the artwork is beyond amazing, with each page brimming with superhero depictions by Rafael Kayanan, Rich Buckler, Michael Bair, and Howard Bender - all with perfect inking by Alfredo Alcala! And each of the 4 covers is a mini-masterpiece by the great Jerry Ordway.
Inside the front and back covers of each issue you'll find Roy Thomas' footnotes, attributions, comments, and the sources, for nearly every scene in the mini-series!
These four issues of AMERICA vs THE JUSTICE SOCIETY are all in near-pristine condition - no tears, folds, stress lines, ragged edges or toning. We'll conservatively call the quartet an aggregate 8.0 VF.. The Overstreet Price Guide assigns a value of $23 for the 4 issues in this condition . . but we'll offer the group for just $15.
That's 160 pages of Golden Age goodness - for only 9¢ per page! And the best value for the entire mini-series you'll find here on HipComic!
