5.0 out of 5 stars Great Memories for aging 'baby boomers', November 20, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Justice League of America Archives, Vol. 1 (DC Archive Editions) (Hardcover)
Are you a 'greying baby boomer'? Did you grow up waiting at the local 7-11 for the latest issues of your favorite comic heroes to hit the stands? Do you regret having tossed out all of your old comic books? Remember the days of the 12-cent comic book?

If you answered yes to more than one of the above, this book and the series it's part of is for you.

I grew up in the sixties, during the 'silver age' of DC comics. I used to spend hours reading, re-reading, looking at covers, and generally following the exploits of my favorite DC characters.

The plots are corny, the art dated and you always knew that the good guy would come out on top. What a great time to live in!

These archive books from DC reprint the complete stories from all the comics you had and somehow lost over the years. Each is 200+ pages (color) with a slew of your favorite stories. I've purchased a bunch of these and find myself re-enjoying the adventures I read about as a boy of 11.

This series is a great momental of our youthful days. If you enjoyed the DC series of comics and would like to see the stories once again, buy one book - then buy them all. Great for relaxation and light reading.

~ Highly recommended ~

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic tales of teamwork, friendship, and justice., March 20, 2007
By 
This review is from: Justice League of America Archives, Vol. 1 (DC Archive Editions) (Hardcover)
I held off buying the DC Archive editions for years because of the hefty price. Then I bought a couple used and I saw that they are worth every penny. At least they are worth it if you grew up with these titles. It was amazing how many of these stories (and specific panels) that I personally remembered after nearly 50 years.

Volume one contains stories originally published in The Brave and the Bold #28-30, and Justice League of America #1-6. The highlights of this first volume are the first JLA story (with Starro the Conqueror), and later, the Green Arrow joining the team.

These stories look better on the high-grade, glossy paper than they did when first printed- and much, much better than they look on old, yellow newsprint. The maroon leatherette covers (with the Justice League of America logo embossed in silver) are first rate- though I would never take the heavy, glossy jackets off of them.

Treat yourself to the age of true heroes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Silver Age Reprints!, May 8, 1998
By 
Tegan (Washington State) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Justice League of America Archives, Vol. 1 (DC Archive Editions) (Hardcover)
This book reprints The Brave and the Bold 28-30, which introduced the Justice League, and Justice League of America 1-6. Nine classic stories from the dawn of the Super Heroes as we know them today. Trying to buy all these issue separately would drain your wallet, but together in a handsome volume, they are a deal for any classic comic collector!
(Note: This review is for Vol 1, not Vol 2. For some reason, it shows up under both)
