Agreed. This book brought me back into comics after the ridiculous train wreck of the early 90's. Best comics story, art, and series of all time in my book. Should have been the blueprint for DC for the next 20 years.
It's great. Especially with the extra pages that were added years later that show the stories end 1000 years into the future. I even have the radio drama based on the story. Two cassette tapes. I need to look for the MP3.
great book, and the best part is that it's technically an elseworlds story of the golden age DC characters...love it!
They tried to drag that Superman into DC continuity but it didn't work too well. Though I did enjoy the Justice Society issues he was a part of.
yes, that was a great run, begining to end.
