1st time Batman & Superman appear together in a story (10-11/41)
DC Premiere CollectionThis somewhat downbeat cover was intended to highlight the suffering of children overseas, and raise money to help orphans living in unbearable conditions under the black clouds of WWII. The JSA looks on with concerned but determined faces, while Green Lantern comforts a pair of young survivors. Comics have provided entertainment for millions over the decades, but the industry has proven time and again that, more than a mere distraction, comics can help people, by raising funds, boosting morale, and sending messages of hope to readers, regardless of language or location. This issue of All Star Comics, like many from the era, displays the true power and influence of these so-called, funny books. It is also important to note that this issue contains the first-ever pairing of DC’s biggest names to date, Superman and Batman.
