| The Death
of the Silver Age!
DC's release of the original
12-issue limited-series CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS was both the fulfilment
and the end of all the promise of the Silver Age of Comics. The concepts
of multiple (or, infinite) Earths, of worlds where Robin adopted the mantle
of the Batman, of where Supergirl was a Kryptonian teen-age named Kara
Zor-El, or where Superman was an infallible immortal who never slept, ended
forever with the publication of these stories. |

| The Original
Crisis
This book forms sort of a
trilogy with two other DC trade paperbacks: "Crisis on Infinite Earths"
and "History of the DC Universe." All three books are worth reading, but
this is the one tailor-made for silver age fans and people who love the
Justice League.
Many years ago, DC established
that their heroes of the 1930s and 40s lived in a different universe than
the heroes of the 50s they were currently publishing -- an "Earth-2." |
| Since the Flashes
of the two worlds had met on occasion, the creators of the Justice League
of America comic book decided it was time for the current heroes to meet
their predecessors, the first superhero team in comics, the Justice Society
of America. That first story was successful and became a more-or-less annual
event that lasted until the Crisis on Infinite Earths eliminated multiple
universes from DC Comics.
This book collects the first
several JLA/JSA pairings, each two parts and all done with style, class
and a touch of that campy silver age charm that still makes the stories
a lot of fun 40 years later.
