Smash Comics #1

Part of DC's 1999 "Justice Society Returns!" event, this all-new #1 brings Hourman and Dr. Mid-Nite back to the spotlight with a cover design that lovingly echoes the Golden Age originals. Dave Johnson's artwork presents a dramatically close-cropped Hourman in the foreground alongside a full-figure Dr. Mid-Nite sweeping forward in his green cape, blue goggles catching the light. Tom Peyer, Stephen Sadowski, and Michael Bair are on hand to deliver "Name Your Poison," making this a fine entry point for anyone with a soft spot for the JSA's enduring legacy.
