Summary: Degaton, The Wizard, Superman and Batman- Vol. 8
Review: In this collection, The JSA hits the era where the villains were more colorful and the stories a bit more serious. Comic relief Johnny Thunder no longer plays a major role and the storylines were relatively sophisticated for "Golden Age" comics. The Wizard makes his first appearance, Per Degaton's time traveling causes a number of problems for the JSA, and the epic Injustice Society storyline are all in this volume. It also includes the last appearances of Superman and Batman in the JSA and the first appearance of Black Canary with art by one of comic's greatest Alex Toth. With another excellent Roy Thomas intro, this volume contains many of the JSA's best tales.
