    Hello nightgaunt, put ‘all star comics’ #3 into a search engine and you will see a pic of the ‘Justice Society of America’. I dont know their history, because i started buying their issues in 2005.

    @saywhat?

    The Justice Society predated the Justice League by quite a few years. Their membership included some of the early DC superheroes such as the original Flash (Jay Garrett). The team was disbanded after WWII when the cold-war era government decided that all of them needed to unmask for security reasons. Rather than do so, they gave up their costumes and retired. I don’t remember why, but the team was reunited some years later and for a very long time DC had parallel earths in one of which the Justice Society operated and another was “our” earth where the Justice League served. When DC had their “Crisis on Infinite Earths” and consolidated all of those parallel earths into one, both teams participated in the event and now co-habitate the only earth that is left. It’s been about 10 years since I have read a new comic, but I believe that is still the status quo. (In case you can’t tell, I used to collect comics, mostly DC.)

    That’s Jay GARRICK not Jay Garrett. The current status of the JSA in the “New 52” Universe that was introduced last year is that the Justice Society is being formed on Earth-2 (in the comic titled EARTH-2) after the world has been devestated in a war with Darkseid that killed of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in the climactic battle. They’ve jettisoned the “legacy heroes from World War II” concept (which I personally loved), and are making the new heroes young and relevant. For example Alan Scott (who hasn’t yet become Green Lantern) is Gay. I miss my older and wiser superheroes.

    I never liked that parallel earth ‘consolidation.’
