 Why You Should Collect and Buy
Justice League of America Comic Books
 Justice League of America
1960 series
If there was no Justice League of America, there would have been no Fantastic Four and perhaps no Marvel Age of Comics.
According to comic book legend, in 1962 the president of Marvel Comics was looking for the next hot idea in comics and learned that DC's hottest new book was the Justice League of America. As a result, he told Stan Lee to create a super-hero team. And, the Fantastic Four was born.
But, that's not the real reason you should collect Justice League of America. Rather, it's because it was the first comic book series in the Silver Age of comics to regularly bring together a team of super-heroes. And, once it put Superman off into a corner of the galaxy (after all, with old Superman in the picture, any villain seemed puny), the stories were ripe with great teamwork. You can see how that teamwork created the framework of how the Fantastic Four and X-Men later worked together.
Writer Gardner Fox and artist Mike Sekowsky created the first 8 years of issues. The original line-up included Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern and the Martian Manhunter. Eventually Green Arrow, Atom and Hawkman joined, and in one memorable issue, Metamorpho actually said, "No thanks". The early issues had a real frat-house atmosphere, a cool clubhouse (for the 1960s at least), and even a mascot. No, it wasn't a dog, but a teenager named Snapper Carr. He tried to be "groovy"...oh the 1960s!!
After Fox and Sekowsky left, the group expanded and membership became sort of a revolving door of DC's secondary heroes like Elongated Man, Red Tornado, Hawkwoman, Zatanna anf Firestorm.
In the series, alot of top writing talent can be found, from Denny O'Neill, Mike Friedrich, Len Wein, E. Nelson Bridwell, Gerry Conway and Steve Englehart. Dick Dillon drew most of issues #64-#181, followed by George Perez, who became the go-to artist for any big super-hero mini-series, like Crisis on Infinite Earths or Justice League vs. the Avengers.
The series spawned lots of spin-offs, like Justice League (1987 series), Justice League Europe, JLA, and Extreme Justice.
So, if you're looking for good stories, and a better understanding of the comic book culture of the 1960s and 1970s, Justice League of America can be a great place to start.
