All-Star Squadron

After Pearl Harbor was bombed, President Roosevelt called all "Mystery Men" to help the U.S. fight in the war. He called this team the All-Star Squadron. The Squadron consisted of members from Freedom Fighters, Justice Society, Seven Soldiers of Victory and many solo heroes. From their base in the Perisphere, built for the World's fair, the Squadron would go on many classified missions answering only to the F.D.R. and the War Department. 
 
Their fist mission was to stop Per Degaton from attacking the west coast of the United States and to free the Justice Society members that were captured by Degaton. 
 
The whole theme of the comic was based on Hitler had possession of "The Spear of Destiny". This gave Hitler powers over any magic based heroes.

As the adults had their missions, the super powered kids had their own battle. Calling themselves the Young All-Stars and being lead by former JSAer, Sandy the Golden Boy, the Young All-Stars fought Axis Amerika and others on the home front.

The All-Star Squadron was an example of "retroactive continuity" or "retcon", as it rewrote the already-established history of DC superheroes that had been published during the 1940s. The first known use of the term "retcon" was by Roy Thomas in the letter column of All-Star Squadron #20 (April, 1983). Several story lines ironed out continuity errors (and quite a few were created), fleshed out characters' origins and rewrote earlier stories to jibe with later established continuity.
