About this Collection

This ninth volume of DC's Archive Editions series reprints the classic Golden Age adventures of the Justice Society of America from All Star Comics #35-41, originally published in the late 1940s. Featuring stories by writers like Robert Kanigher and artists such as Irwin Hasen, this collection showcases the team's post-war exploits, including the introduction of new members and the continuation of their battle against villains like the Wizard. A must-have for fans of vintage superhero team-ups, this hardcover preserves the original comic book art and coloring in a high-quality format.

In "The Invasion from Fairyland! [Part 1]," Johnny teams up with Green Lantern and Hawkman to battle a dragon and free the Good Fairy, who sends them into the Dark Castle to rescue their missing friends. Inside, they uncover Lorelei’s magical trap and must outwit her enchanted bucket before she turns them into animals—setting the stage for a wild clash of magic and might. Written by John Broome and illustrated by Irwin Hasen, this classic tale from All Star Comics Archives #9 features dynamic art and a whimsical yet perilous adventure, with Hasen also handling the cover.

They enter the castle, discover the magic bucket/doe trap Lorelei has set for them. GL uses his ring to avoid the trap and restore Cinderella and others to their former selves, then face the Lorelei and Slicer.

Then she changes five JSAers into animals.
