About this Collection
This hardcover volume collects Justice League of America issues #35-44, originally published in the mid-1960s. It features classic Silver Age stories by writer Gardner Fox and artist Mike Sekowsky, including the introduction of the villainous construct known as the Construct and the team's battle against the Crime Syndicate of Earth-Three. As part of DC's Archive Editions series, this book presents restored, full-color reprints of these foundational Justice League adventures.
In "The Key-Master of the World!", the Justice League of America faces a mind-bending mystery when a prison escape attempt by Felix Faust unintentionally spawns a mystical duplicate—leading to a race against time to identify the true one before their eventual disappearance unravels the fabric of the universe. Written by Gardner Fox and brought to life with dynamic art by Mike Sekowsky, inks by Sid Greene, and vibrant coloring by Digital Chameleon, this classic tale features a clever twist that only Snapper Crane sees clearly. The cover, penciled by Sekowsky and inked by Bernard Sachs, captures the eerie tension of a world where identity itself is at stake.
