About this Collection

This trade paperback collects Silver Age and Bronze Age tales from DC's anthology titles, focusing on the lead-up to the landmark Crisis on Infinite Earths. It features team-ups between the Justice League of America and the Justice Society of America, showcasing the multiverse-spanning adventures that set the stage for the universe-altering event. Included are stories from Justice League of America issues #195-197 and #200, as well as DC Comics Presents #33 and #34, written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by artists like George Pérez and Dick Dillin.

In "Crisis from Yesterday!", the annual Justice League of America-Justice Society of America gathering takes a sudden, chilling turn when Mr. Terrific cryptically warns that the Spirit King has possessed one of the JSA members present—though he won’t say who. As tensions rise and the heroes struggle to maintain order, a sudden breach tears through the satellite, leaving Mr. Terrific’s body floating in the void. Written by Gerry Conway and brought to life with dynamic art by Dick Dillin, inks by Frank McLaughlin, and colors by Jerry Serpe, this pivotal issue builds suspense with a haunting mystery. The cover, a striking collaboration by George Pérez, captures the moment’s gravity.
