About this Collection

This trade paperback collects the final pre-Crisis tales of the Justice League of America and the Justice Society of America, leading into the landmark 'Crisis on Infinite Earths.' Featuring stories from the early 1980s, it showcases the last major team-ups between Earth-1 and Earth-2 heroes before the multiverse was forever altered. The volume includes issues such as Justice League of America #207-209 and #211-212, along with other key tie-ins that set the stage for the cosmic reboot.

In "The Murderer Among Us: Crisis Above Earth-One!", the annual JLA-JSA summit takes a dark turn when heroes across Earth-1 begin collapsing—save Black Canary and Red Tornado, both Earth-2 refugees. With Johnny Thunder's Thunderbolt unleashing chaos from the satellite and the JSA battling the Crime Champions on the ground, Black Canary, Starman, and Sargon venture into the Thunderbolt Dimension, only to confront a chilling mystery: Earth-1's Johnny Thunder and two glass coffins holding Larry Lance and another Black Canary. Written by Roy Thomas and Gerry Conway, with art by Chuck Patton and inks by Romeo Tanghal, this pivotal issue features a cover by Kevin Nowlan.

Contains 18 stories
