This is the one.
This is the comic book that ruined my life.
“Justice League of America” No. 82, cover dated August 1970.
It changed who I am forever.
It wasn’t my first comic book.
It wasn’t even my first issue of DC’s premier super-team.
Now look at that cover:
Neal Adams’ gorgeous piece of artwork depicts the top members of the Justice League of America – Superman, Batman and the Flash – and their Justice Society of America counterparts.
In case you can’t tell from the visual cues, Superman exclaims in a terrific info dump: “Whatever’s crushing the Justice Society on their Earth — is doing it to us on our world!”
Come on.
How can you not be curious?
