Justice League of America #53DC's tribute to Julius Schwartz concludes with this one-shot, inspired by the cover to JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #53. Peter David and acclaimed author Harlan Ellison team with classic Silver Age artist Joe Giella (BATMAN) for one story, while Marv Wolfman (THE NEW TEEN TITANS) and Dustin Nguyen (BATMAN) take the challenge for a second tale.
There are technically two stories in this book but they are essentially the same. It is a tribute to Julius (Julie) Schawrtz who is a character in the first story. If you read the cover you basically know what is going to happen. It is very silver age in the style of story telling.
Spoiler Warnings
In the first story takes place in February 1967. Julie is working late on a comic story at the expense of being home with his family. He is so tired he dozes off only to dream that the biggest superheros in DC are forcing him to work on their new comic. Julie in turn uses their powers or rather their weaknesses against them. It is after he defeats the heroes that they realize what they are doing and tell him to go home to his family
In the second story the Justice League goes back into time to save themselves from falling victim to the Time Lords who go back into time to destroy the Justice League while they are still rookies.
