Members of the Justice League somehow get pulled to Earth-Prime, where they come to the aid of that world’s first superhero. Logic leaps and other story execution problems hinder this outing by Gerry Conway and fill-in artist George Tuska.
READThe entire might of the Justice League of America combines to stop a plot by their one-time sidekick and the villainous Key. The villains are the weak link to this tale written by Steve Englehart and drawn by longtime JLA penciler Dick Dillin.
READTrouble seeks out Adam Strange and the Justice League – both on Earth and 25 trillion miles away on Rann. A rather simple story from Cary Bates keeps this wedding issue from being something special, despite decent art from JLA regulars Dick Dillin and Frank McLaughlin.
READThe lead feature for this 1973 issue of Batman is a little weak, but the final backup tale – by Frank Robbins and Dick Giordano – is an all-time classic.
READLocked in the JLA satellite, the Justice League and Justice Society investigate who among them is a murderer. The conclusion to this Gerry Conway two-parter stumbles, keeping it from being a classic. (The interior is by JLA regulars Dick Dillin and Frank McLaughlin.)
READThe Justice League and Justice Society meet for a social get-together – but the good times end in murder! Writer Gerry Conway delivers a more-intimate-than-usual drama for the 1979 edition of this annual team-up, and he gets solid support from the journeyman art team of Dick Dillin and Frank McLaughlin.

READNow insane, the Captain America and Bucky of the 1950s plot to capture the real Cap and girlfriend Sharon Carter. Steve Englehart does a great job bringing the 1950s Cap into the Bronze Age, with solid art support from Sal Buscema.
READAstronaut Chris Galland and crew convince savage tribes of post-apocalyptic humans to unite against the “blood-sucking dome dwellers.” Not original and poorly scripted, this Atlas (Seaboard) comic from John Albano, Pat Broderick and Frank McLaughlin is still a lot of fun.
