"I love this series. The artwork is gorgeous, it manages to use almost every DC character from the 40s through the 60s without feeling like they were forced into a story where they didn't belong, and its fun. It has its dark moments, but at the end of the day this story is about heroism and doing the right thing. Simply a work of art."
