"JSA #18: Having now read the entire "JSA: Year One" storyline, my verdict on this revised origin story for comicdom's first super-hero team is as follows: "It really wasn't all that good.""
"I also enjoyed The Twelve. I don't think JMS obviated much Golden Age history, nor did he re-invent these characters. He just took what was on the page in the '40s and extrapolated them into what they might have "really" been, and into something…"
"I also enjoyed First Knight, and am looking forward to the sequel.
I didn't post anything about First Knight, because I was late to the party, and Jeff and others had already said how good it was. I will say that one of the quirkier elements is the…"

They're good fun. I think I'm scratching the itch I had as a kid when I couldn't afford those big lumps of colourful plastic that looked so cool in the ads.
Actually I'm downloading them as I just know I'm going to visit that site some day and see that they've been taken down...
If you happen to find out the creative credits for the different episodes and their publishing dates I'd be grateful for the info. I couldn't find them anywhere.
Here's a birthday present for you.
