Would U Buy It #40: "JSA: All-Star Origins"

We all have trade paperback (TPB) collections we'd like to see. Here's one of mine:

Proposed Title:JSA: All-Star Origins.
Collecting 10 Issues:All-Star Squadron #23, 33, 41, 47, 61-63, 65-67.
Covers: (click to enlarge)
TPB Cover: All-Star Squadron #67
TPB Cover: All-Star Squadron #67

Imagine: Ten Golden Age origins all told by Roy Thomas! Get the origins of Amazing-Man, the Freedom Fighters, Starman, Dr. Fate, Liberty Belle, Shining Knight, Robotman, Johnny Quick, Tarantula, and the first case of the Justice Society! I think this would be an awesome collection, but I don't think that it would sell as an All-Star Squadron collection, which is why I gave it a JSA title..

For the cover, since I gave it a JSA title, I'd go with the JSA cover, from issue #67. In truth though, I'm partial to the Robotman or Dr. Fate covers. The JSA cover is the better choice though, even though it would imply that each character on the cover would get their own origin in the TPB. It'd be a little bit misleading, but not entirely a cheat, since it's the cover for the JSA story that would be inside.

Would you buy it? Let me know in the comments, and thanks for reading.
