We close out our coverage of the terrific Grant Morrison JLA run with this adventure that was released as its own graphic novel: JLA Earth 2. Done by Morrison and Frank Quitely  -- who would later do the sublime All-Star Superman series -- this story is about an alternate world where the JLA is evil (the Crime Syndicate of America) and Lex Luthor is good! CSA is not a Morrison invention -- it goes back to 1964 when Gardner Fox created them during the original run of JLA stories. But here we get a Morrison-y twist: in the CSA's world, evil ALWAYS WINS. So how do you win in such a world? You'll have to read to find out. Or listen to our episode. Kevin thinks Will hates this story, but it's just that Will is embarrassed at his poor ability to recap!

For episode 101, we explore the history of the multiverse in DC comics...and it's not what you think! We provide a (brief) overview of the first examples of multiversal theory in fiction and science before discussing the first multiverse story in DC comics (which is NOT The Flash but rather in the pages of Wonder Woman)! We then discuss the iconic and meta Flash of Two Worlds and the first use of the term "multiverse" from an All-Star Squadron story by Roy Thomas. Ep. 101 What if the Flash of Two Worlds was incorrectly identified as the origin of the DC Multiverse? Infinite earths as seen in hundreds of DC comic booksFor the start of our NEXT 100 episodes, we travel to the beginning of the multiverse in DC comics when Wonder Woman encounters an alternate universe version of herself back in 1953! We then tackle the iconic and super meta Flash story "Flash of Two Worlds" from Carmine Infantino and multiversal godfather Gardner Fox which brings together Barry Allen and Jay Garrick for the first time! We wrap up in the pages of All-Star Squadron which sees the Justice Society of America (or more preciously Doctor Fate) travel to a very Ditko-esque universe to battle The Spectre and to utter the word "multiverse" for the first time in DC comics courtesy of the legendary Roy Thomas. Plus Michael Moorcock, William James, Spider-Verse the upcoming Flash DCU film and much more. Reading List: Wonder Woman #59 (1953) The Flash #123 (1961) All-Star Squadron #27 (1983) Find us & support us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersEmail Podcast@DearWatchers.comTheme music is Space Heroes by MaxKoMusic (Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0) ★ Support this podcast ★

On this episode, we look ahead to the June 16 release of The Flash with a little story that established the concept of the multiverse as a canonical part of superhero comics: “The Flash of Two Worlds” from The Flash # 123, by Gardner Fox and Carmine Infantino, published by DC Comics! Performing for children at a fundraiser, the Flash (Barry Allen) vibrates at super speed and finds himself on another Earth! And it turns out this world is home to ... The Flash (Jay Garrick), whose “fictional” exploits thrilled Barry (and DC Comics readers) several years earlier! Faced with the existence of multiple realities, what do our heroes do? Why, team up to fight bad guys, of course! We also run through two subsequent Barry Allen/Jay Garrick team-ups: “Double Danger on Earth” from The Flash # 129 and “Vengeance of the Immortal Villain” from The Flash #137! How well do these stories stack up, six decades later? And do any of them cross over the finish line into that multiverse of madness known as ... The Comics Canon? In This Episode: ·         Curt ... has some thoughts ... about the Flash's super-speed powers ·         The Thinker leaves millions on the table ·         The Flash Vol. 2 No. 1: “Happy Birthday Wally!” ·         Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse ·         Fear Agent Final Edition Vol. 1 Run, don't walk, to join us in two weeks as we return to the world of The Dreaming for the first of a two-part look at The Sandman: The Kindly Ones! Until then: Impress your friends with our Comics Canon merchandise! Rate us on Apple Podcasts! Send us an email! Hit us up on Twitter or Facebook! And as always, thanks for listening!

 Issue 157 - Doctor Fate Intro Lots of good stuff coming for Patrons in the next few weeks Background Doctor Fate, Kent Nelson, created by Gardner Fox and Howard Sherman in More Fun Comics #55 (May 1940) Kent Nelson is on an archaeological dig with his father Sven when they accidentally awaken an ancient Sumerian God, Nabu the Wise- the chamber was filled with poisonous gas, which kills Sven - Nabu pities Kent and trains him in magic for 20 years before Kent returns to the US and begins operating as a superhero Wearing the Helmet of Nabu, he gains incredible magic power, although it is revealed that Nabu is often in control of his body while wearing the helmet He later creates a half-helmet to retain greater control, although it costs him some power One of the founding members of the original Justice Society of America in 1940, he later retires and focuses on being a physician alongside his wife Inza In the 1980s, Inza committed suicide, but Nabu wouldn't allow Kent to die until he found a successor, which he did (not getting into Eric Strauss and all the problems therein) - at which point Nabu granted him peace and let him die Kent & Inza are resurrected into younger bodies, and Inza operates as Doctor Fate for a time, before the two battle Extant, who rapidly ages Kent & Inza to their “proper” bodies - they find Jared Stevens, who becomes the new Doctor Fate, and Kent & Inza die and enter a dimension in Jared's amulet  Issues - theme is cost of magic Nabu constantly controlling his body Losses of Inza What's really the point of magic? Break Plugs for Talk Me Into, Ignorance Was Bliss, and Saladin Ahmed Treatment In-universe Out of universe Skit  Hello Kent, I'm Dr. Issues. -Hello, doctor. So, what can I help you with? -I should be able to tell you that. What does that mean? -You're aware of my…condition? Ah…that name's a bit on the nose, isn't it? -You're one to talk! *laughs* I've always wanted to be on the other end for once. Forgive me. -As much as it may amuse you, I'll admit I'm not one for small talk. Neither am I…usually. For some reason, I'm a bit more loose than usual, and I don't even know you. *pause* that's telling. I'm not sure what. - I'm used to others obfuscating their motives for some other time, but not when they consider themselves an ally. Is there something you're looking to avoid? This isn't supposed to be about me. The longer we talk about my own iss…mindset, the less time we have to address yours. So, to get back to your original point, no, I don't want to know anything about my future. - *phew* Glad I don't have to put on the helmet, then. Were you purposely flipping to questions on me because you thought I'd want that? -That's what most people want. They think magic is part of a whimsical show. But the realms of gods are deadly serious. A whimsical ask for lottery numbers leads to the knowledge that their cousin will soon fall ill. Tears of joy, tears of sorrow…they all stain the face the same. How morbid -Again, from what I know, you're casting stones from a glass house. Gallows humor is a well known defense mechanism. I know where mine comes from. What about yours? -I never implied humor. You have your own lens to view the world. I tend towards stoicism. Face reality for what it is, and it will never harm you. Then you are also aware that reality can bring wonderment, enthusiasm, passion as well? I think your helmet is your way of physically manifesting a protection from the worst, but it may also limit your best. -The civilizations that have been saved would disagree.  I'm sure they disagree. Do you? -*pause* What if I told you it's not me? Well, not ALL me.  *sigh* I have done this enough times to take a hint. Who then, if it's safe to tell? -You're going to think I'm crazy, that I have multiple personalities or someth… *interrupting* NO LABELS, *ahem* Please. It's too quick to cast such judgements, and I'd never use that kind of language. Heck, I've even had sessions with someone who deals with ancient gods granting power in exchange for loyalty. -*pause* And to think, I figured this was a unique scenario OH YOU GOT TO BE KID…***deep breaths, chanting***magnets draw metal because they are strong, magnets draw metal, because they are strong…sorry, I have a mantra I use to re-center myself. Every situation is a new opportunity to enhance a mystical being's…attitude? Psyche? Aura? I don't know what the proper terms are. -This may be forward, but it is clear to me that you have only been on the receiving end of magical influence. You are hindered by what is instinctually unfamiliar. I may have a way to assist your comprehension.  I enjoy reading new things, as long as there's a decent English translation. -The process is not done through theory alone. I may not cast spells on myself, but if I know that it will be used on another Whoa whoa whoa…I've spent my career telling people to limit their use of a surrogate, and you're inviting me to jump in? Nope. Uh-uh. No way! -The best analogue I can think of is guided meditation, doctor. *pause* Safe word is “screwdriver,” got it? -If you say so. ***magical sound effect*** this is a facsimile of my own helmet, since you wouldn't be able to wear my own. You'll have an opportunity for just a piece of my existence. ***low tonal droning sound*** Ugh, my head…it's like…a 3D game set fire to my eyes - *Nabu* that is clarity beyond typical sight. If you are not of pure mind, then your soul will be destroyed in a matter of seconds. You have bent your mortal form to the whims of Nabu for the good of the universe. This is no small sacrifice. I'm…not…dying? I figured he just tricked me to knock me out or something. -*Nabu* Kent Nelson and his wife have long been sacrificial lambs for the world. You are joining esteemed company, if that is any consolation. Indeed, you appear to have an unwavering motivation to aide those around you, but you must let go of your modest approach. *groan* Oh wow, I can really help here. You've been ignored for too long - That's absurd! No one has ignored a Lord of Order without consequence. Oh, I think you're wro…underestimating your vulnerability. You have too often neglected kindness for weakness. Act after long delays because of impulse. I can do something that no one else has offered. I can listen. -*Nabu* I have travelled for eons, battled entities that have no name, and even at your miniscule level guided the pharoahs for centuries. What makes you any different from the countless visceral vessels I have utilized though epochs of the unknown? Try me. Tell me all of the frustrations you've had since existence, and I'll be right there, with every word you say. -*pause, still as Nabu* Sometimes, I really miss Cilia. That's the home world…well, we were around well before the world, of course, but have to start somewhere, right? Anyway, the fellow Lords are way more petty than you can imagine ***clock ticking, clearly different topic*** …and that's why human ears have a tragus Wow, I haven't used that term since medical school anatomy class. This is amazing! - ***genuine surprise*** I have been trying to demonstrate the futility of human history and yet you still stand there enraptured. What manner of magic are you sourcing? I have never been in the presence of such…patient warmth. Told you so -I only know of scripture that describes human life lasting this long. What? -You have been listening to me for…the colloquial term is a millenia. WHAAAAAAT? My life, my family…I didn't mean… -***pause, then laughter*** Oh man, I can't believe you fell for that. I had a temporal spell cast. Oh, so it's only been, what, felt like 2 or 3 hours, maybe? -No it was a millenia. I just protected you outside of time itself. I'll place you back into your office, in your own time, as soon as you use the helmet. *cracks his neck* ahhhh, you know, that really was worthwhile. Kent shall know of your ability to help him. For now, I shall leave you to your devices. Good, because I've had enough of youuuuuuurrrrOH MY GOD -*Kent* oh good, you're back. I hope you don't mind, I called for dinner while you were…preoccupied. Thanks for saving the world, by the way. I just listened to the voice of the universe and you're talking about saving the world? -Oh yeah, that's the prototype half-helmet I had a while ago. I didn't remember anything Nabu did, but he had carte blanche. On the other end though, he would yell at me and said I just complained a lot. But I guess you two got along better, eh? You even had this ominous “I am Doctor Issues” voice and cast some spells I never knew existed. You got a whole terrorist cell to surrender and do community service to boot! *Pause* did I have a cool uniform? -Eh, too much of a black and blue theme. Plus you destroyed any photo or video instantaneously. That…sounds like something I'd do. Anyway…I don't know how to tell you this, but I don't think I can -I have my other helmet, I'm good. Say no more. I really wanted Nabu to get the help, anyway. Maybe now he'll show more respect because you proved humanity's worth in a different way. Keep it. If he wants another session, trust me, he'll let you know. Goodbye, doctor. *door shuts* *crying*I DIDN'T GET TO ASK ABOUT MEGA MILLIONS!

Welcome to a very special episode of the show! As you know, typically I cover a lot of crazy comics, and most wouldn't be considered groundbreaking by most. I decided to not just cover a seminal comic book, and break away from the more bizarre side of the medium, but I also brought a guest on that loves and creates his own comics! Please welcome my friend Javon Stokes to the show! Javon is a creator and podcaster that is one of the hardest working people I know in the industry, and I couldn't wait to talk to him about this great DC Silver Age story, The Flash of Two Worlds! Gardner Fox, Carmine Infantino, and Joe Giella do a fantastic job with this story, and it opened up a whole new world for the rest of the DC universe.  As usual, you can send any feedback to the show through email at Magazinesandmonsters@gmail.com or to the FB page or to me on Twitter @Billyd_licious. You can find Javon on FB (Visually Stoked Media), on Twitter @jstokesstudios or on his website Visuallystoked.com (definitely give his work a look, as it's something he's very passionate about, and he loves the comic book medium)!

Ross welcomes Jennifer DeRoss author of Forgotten All-Star A Biography of Gardner Fox. We chat about All-Stars 14 & 44, how the book came to be, and maybe a tangent or 2.

After my appearance on Superheroes for Dummies, I decided I wanted to do an episode focused on the Golden Age Starman. We'll look at the three artists who workded on the strip, Jack Burnley, Mort Meskin and Emil Gershwin. We'll read through three stories, and take a talk briefly about the two main writers, Alfred Bester and Gardner Fox.
