About this Collection

This 1990s DC Comics trade paperback gathers a selection of classic team-up tales from across the publisher's history, featuring iconic pairings like Batman and Superman, the Flash and Green Lantern, and other memorable duos. As the fourth volume in DC's 'Greatest Stories' series, it collects stories originally published in the 1960s through the 1980s, showcasing the enduring appeal of superhero partnerships.

In "The Terrible Trio," Green Arrow and Green Lantern clash over justice in the streets, forcing the Guardians of the Universe to intervene. When Green Lantern defies orders to confront slumlord Jubal Slade, the Guardians send a representative to guide the duo on a journey across America to uncover deeper systemic failures. Written by Denny O'Neil and brought to life with powerful art by Neal Adams—both in story and on the cover—this landmark issue explores the limits of heroism with emotional weight and sharp social insight.
