As part of the JLMay 2020 event, I will be talking about JLA (the 90's series) 115-119 for the "MARCH TO INFINITE CRISIS"!!! But it dawned on me; there's a set of classic Justice League of America issues that not only open that "Crisis of Conscience" story arc up, but ALSO served as the influence for "Identity Crisis"! I couldn't let such an opportunity pass to talk about "Justice League of America" issues 166,167 and 168! See the Secret Society of Super-Villains take over the bodies of the Justice League! Reel at the stupidity of Red Tornado! Gasp at how insensitive Batman is over funeral rites! All this and more await your ears!

All this, plus the LAST bi-monthly publishing book list, and your listener feedback!

Neal Adams? In my Justice League book?!? Well... okay... only FOUR pages worth!

And if you want to leave some, by all means please write justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, or leave a comment on the show posting! As ever, thanks for your time and please enjoy!

Judging from the issue numbers being a two-parter, it must be time for another Justice League and Justice Society crossover! In issues 91 and 92, we bear witness to the return of Solomon Grundy, the age-related griping of both Hawkmen and Robins, and the CONSTANT-BENCHING of Black Canary! All this, plus other fun books, and your listener feedback!

Hey! Aquaman's finally come back to the comic! Awesome! What's this? The Justice League gets to fight against proto-Funky Flashman? Cool! And you say you wanted a comic that teaches you ALL about plankton? My friends, "Earth's Final Hour" is the issue for you! All this, plus the usual grab-bag of craziness that I have to offer you. So, should you wish to risk added pollution by magicking some feedback my way, please leave me an email at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  As always, thanks for your time and hope you enjoy!

Is this the issue that comes close to killing me? Maybe I can't blame Justice League of America 84 for the cold I developed... and which I apologize for the quality of my voice for... but it certainly did NOT help boost morale. Oh boy... I'd give you a teaser in this description, but maybe it's for the best you hear for yourselves! Some nightmares defy conventional descriptions! But should YOU wish to unleash your Pax Serum hangover rants about this issue, by all means leave me a comment on the podcast page, or feel free to drop me an email at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com! As always, thanks so much for your time, and hope you enjoy!

Does Red Tornado exist SOLELY to make the lives of the Justice League and Justice Society members more difficult? Is the Anti-Monitor all that original, when we see the scheme Creator-Squared has cooked up? And finally... can we FINALLY start getting some ladies on either team that know how to kick butt and take names?!?  All these questions, and more, will be addressed in the next JLA/JSA crossover in issues 82 and 83! All this, plus the usual extras you know and... probably tolerate! Feedback is always welcome, so feel free to drop an email to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, or you can always leave a comment on the Podbean page! Thanks again for your time, hope you enjoy, and this episode is dedicated to my dear departed kitty Isis. She'll be missed...

Happy Labor Day, my friends!  Celebrate it however you choose, whether it be like Jean Loring who's going insane... again, or like Green Lantern and Green Arrow who are just ignoring an emergency summons to just go camping, or EVEN like the Galactic Jest-Master who is sharing some of his favorite "scented oils" with our mightiest heroes to make sure they have some "good times"!  All this is to be found in my coverage of the should-have-been-talked-about-last-episode-issue "Justice League of America" 81!  You can also find the usual assortment of craziness that is wrapped around this dope's show coverage!  As always, feedback is much appreciated either as a comment on the show posting, or at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  Also, as always, thanks for your time and hope you enjoy!

Regular again, with slightly less randomization, I'm back to talk about "Justice League of America" issue 80!  In this, we get to see awesome dramatic highlights with the Flash and Superman, we get to puzzle over how a specific Green Lantern knows Superman, even though they've not been acknowledged of having met yet, and we get to facepalm at how Black Canary gets treated!  All this, plus the usual fun you enjoy about the show!  And if you wish to get in contact, please feel free to drop me some feedback through justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  Thanks as always for your time!

School's out for Summer... but it's time to get back to podcasting about the Justice League!  And what better way to get the show back on track!  But it's not just enough that I cover a two-parter... nor having both issues be GIANT-SIZED... not EVEN having this be a Justice League and Justice Society team-up!  No, to also welcome them back to the current DC Universe, this also features a guest-appearance by the 30th Century Champions, the Legion of Super-Heroes!  All this, plus TONS of catchup and other titles to comment on!  So get comfy... you'll need to!  And as always, your thoughts are always welcome via email at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  Thanks!

Miss me much?  (It's really okay if you're just listening to this episode to "collect them all" for the event!)  But I've come back for a brief reunion gig to talk about the two "Justice League of America" issues that crossed over with the "Blackest Night" event, 39 and 40!  And if you regret my not getting to the Justice League Detroit period, this episode will... kinda scratch that itch.  Featuring the awesome artwork of Mark Bagley!  Featuring the... well, it's on a written page writing of James Robinson!  Featuring the version of Doctor Light that I still detest to this very day!  All that, and more craziness!  Hope you all enjoy, and who knows... You may see me again sooner rather than later!  (Maybe with this show coming back for an episode, that makes ME technically a Black Lantern...)

Hopefully you still remember your Barry White tunes, and have the strawberries with whipped cream ready, because it's part TWO of Ultraa Love Month!  And today our blazing ball of Earth-Prime love tackles both the Justice League AND the returning Injustice Gang of the World in JLA issue 158!  What effects do a negative wave beam have on both our heroes and villains?  Who is this mysterious cloaked figure that leads the Injustice Gang to their new plot of vengeance?  The answers to these questions, along with assorted stops of fun, await you!  So unless you're busy hiding from yet ANOTHER super-battle in Central City, then head on over to a computer and type out your thoughts to the show's email, justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And a sincere thanks for all of your time and enjoyment!

Warm up the jacuzzi... Put on the Kenny G CD as background music... And open up that discount holiday bag of Lindt truffles!  It's the first part of Ultraa Love Month for February!  That's right, this ENTIRE month is dedicated to the ONLY super-hero of Earth Prime! Our Earth!  With locks of red hair that would have made Axl Rose in his prime jealous!  And in issue 153, we see his introduction!  We also get to see a cameo by Julius Schwartz, Green Arrow acting like a PRIME jerk, and how Green Lantern Corps members handle a certain specific alien species!  All this, plus the usual cover date comics fun, and YOUR listener feedback!  So feel free to program your Maxitron to compose an email, and send it to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as ever, thanks for your time and enjoyment!

Time for another double-length episode!  Hey, blame two 100-page super-spectaculars, that were released in a 4 month cover date time span!  So, let's keep THIS part simple!  Justice League of America issues 111 and 112!  The debut of Libra and the Injustice Gang!  The return of Amazo!  All this, plus your listener feedback!  So, gather up that half of a feedback leaving ability, and please send something towards justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And a FULL thanks for your time and enjoyment!

It's gonna be a long one, people, so let's keep this part simple!  The introduction of Starbreaker, the Cosmic Vampire!  The meeting of Sargon the Sorcerer!  And one issue that's practically an 80's sitcom "clip show"!  All this, plus a practical longbox of monthly comic adventures, and your listener feedback!  So unless you're occupied donating your own fear energies to cosmic vampires, then please feel free to leave the show some feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks for your time AND patience with getting this episode released!

This week out, we're talking about JLA 186, featuring the Shaggy Man!  No, not the Reggae-infused Shaggy... Nor an activity that Austin Powers loves...  That hairy android is back, and apparently the Russians are responsible for this!  See Batman get one of his coolest moments in comics!  Witness Ralph Dibny make a truly disgusting sandwich!  Ogle at seeing kinda-sorta more of Black Canary than you would normally EVER see!  All this, plus a rather historic cover date month's worth of discussion!  So, don't wait for solar radiations and the Aurora Borealis to thaw out your keyboard!  By all means, feel free to leave feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as ever, thanks for your support and for your time!

Great... Now Batman is taking over THIS podcast TOO?!?  Actually, as a late Christmas gift to friend of the show, John Moret, we're talking about a fun non-official Justice League of America adventure that was told mostly as backups in the first five issues of the "Detective Comics" section I'm talking about, and cumulates in one entire issue for the ending! So, what threat serves to unify the League in another book?  Would you believe... The debuting Calculator?  (Just don't type out 8008 on his chest piece...)  With artwork by Mike Grell, Ernie Chan and the debuting Marshall Rogers, the inks of Terry Austin, and the fun writing of Bob "Answer Man" Rozakis, how can you go wrong?!? Now if you would please operate your own special chest key to activate your powers to send some email my way!  The best place to send it would be justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, and thanks as always for your time and enjoyment!

A Justice League of America member... quitting?!?  Dr. Bruce Gordon's wicked side... appearing?!?  The unacknowledged bro-mance of comics being recognized... in this issue?!?  All these surprises await you in this episode's coverage of "Justice League of America" 109!  Also, other comicy adventures, and your listener feedback!  So don't wait until after the Crisis, and you get one of those anger-feeding black gems to be enticed to do so!  Please let your thoughts be known with sending feedback to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  As always, thanks for your time!

Had enough Christmas-ish stories, yet?  Don't fret, because JLA 152 is mostly a TENUOUS Christmas tale!  We get many series of shocking events in this issue!  Such instances include: Red Tornado, being the star of an issue!  Superman, acting like an ABSOLUTE jerk!  Major Macabre, proving how forgettable a DC character he truly is!   So don't wait for those alien magi to drop their mystical gifts to grant you the urge to write some feedback!  Just utilize some of that seasonal inspiration to send me a correspondence to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks for your time and hopeful enjoyment!

What's this? An episode shorter than 2 hours?  Only 1 issue to cover?  This IS a Christmas miracle!  Join me as I tackle a Yuletide tale of mysterious murders to solve in JLA 110, a return of an infamous Justice League villain, and... sadly... the return of a supposed "Justice League Member".  But on the bright side, John Stewart fills in as this issue's Green Lantern, and the story itself is pretty fun! So, want to leave some early presents for the show as a Christmas season surprise? Then by all means leave some feedback to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, and thanks again for your continued support!

We're... going to the chapel... and we're... gonna get marrrrried…  At least, we WERE before Kanjar Ro returned to menace Adam Strange and the Justice League of America!  In this episode, covering JLA issues 120 and 121, we see such wonders as Green Arrow acting like a jerk... as normal, Black Canary showing what a master strategist she is, and the Atom braving being crammed into Batman's boot!  All this, plus the usual assortment of fun and games coming your way!  So don't wait until you're changed into some random black sphere to be stored in Kanjar's cave!  Feel free to leave some feedback to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, and thanks as always for your time!

There's 3 hours of content, buttloads of monthly coverages, and THREE WHOLE ISSUES to talk about!  So let's keep this part simple!  The Justice League!  The Justice Society!  The New Gods!  The passing of Dick Dillin, and the entrance of George Perez!  That about sums it up! And if your "Mother Box" has a solid swipe feature on text entries, then please use it to write some feedback to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks and hope you enjoy!

Whether you seek deadly dreams of a disgruntled writer, seeking the romance of Black Canary, or a spirited baseball game between the heroes and villains of the DC Universe, this episode has ALL of those bases covered!  Our JLA issue is a nightmarish kaleidoscope of bizarre fantasies, with Black Canary and Green Arrow caught in the middle!  Our special issue features a mixture of DC characters playing that great American pastime!  And in both issues, we see that Ollie Queen is unilaterally a jerk to Black Canary!  All this, plus your listener feedback!  Should that typewriter cause you to envision yourself as Clark Kent, then by all means send those journalistic feedback pieces to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thank you for your time!

Welcome Wonder Woman back to the team!  She's now a certified super heroine, again!  But does she rejoin just in time for the JLA to call it quits, because of being scared witless of dying?!?  Join me in a discussion of issues 128 and 129 of "Justice League of America"! Hear Green Arrow's legitimate complaint about the setbacks of being a superhero!  See a hidden Power Battery show up in a car's exhaust!  Tremble at the introduction of a villain who shares the same name as a major Green Lantern threat... but in these books, is little more than an alien junkie! All this, plus a buttload of other books, and your listener feedback!  Speaking of which, unless you're under the influence of D-Fear gas, by all means send over some letters to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And thanks, as always, for your time!

I'm back from an Anniversary trip, and ready to talk some Justice League!  Wait...  That's right, this is my crossover episode with #BestEventEver for October, discussing the "Underworld Unleashed" event!  Cool!  What's on the buffet spread?  ... Wait, what's this brown and smelly pile?  "Extreme Justice" is the name of this dish?  Oh well... Since no one else is looking at it... Witness the miracle of birth with a somewhat imaginary baby, gag at some of the worst excesses of 90's artwork, and hopefully agree that Firestorm is these issue's Snapper Carr!  All this, plus a glimpse into what my reading priorities were in the 1995 and 1996 period! So if you don't want to wait until the Predator possesses you to do so, by all means leave me some feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com.  And even in this mess of an episode, thanks for listening!

ITG is back with another participatory episode in this year's #BestEventEver blog/podcast team-up!  For the past 3 years, a loose confederation of comics bloggers & podcasters has gotten together to jam on one of DC Comics' annual x-over events - and this year, we've decided to dig deep into 1995's Underworld Unleashed!The UU story, which shined a light on the villains of the DCU, ran through a 3 issue core mini series & over 40 tie-ins throughout the DC line.  On this episode, I'll be recapping issue #2 of Underworld Unleashed, in which Neron momentarily turns his gaze away from the villains, and instead focuses on DC's greatest heroes!Download this episode HERE!And please be sure to check out further Underworld Unleashed coverage at these fine sites:Relatively Geeky Podcast Network  Resurrections: An Adam Warlock/Thanos Podcast  The RetroistChrisIsOnInfiniteEarthsCosmic TreadmillThe Pop Culture PalaceRolled Spine's Diana Prince: Wonder Woman PodcastThe Idol-Head of DiaboluJustice's First DawnComic Reviews by WaltJustice Trek: The Podcast Scroll down to see a few images from these issues below, and check out previous episodes of I'm the Gun on iTunes & Google Play!Thanks for listening!Music used in this episode: (Every Day Is) Halloween by Ministry; Hell by Squirrel Nut Zippers Leave it to the Joker to sell his soul for a box of cigars . . .

I'm thrilled to once again participate in what's become a fun annual tradition, the #BestEventEver blog/podcast team-up!  For the past 3 years, a loose confederation of comics bloggers & podcasters has gotten together to jam on one of DC Comics' annual x-over events - and this year, we've decided to dig deep into 1995's Underworld Unleashed!The villains of the DCU got a chance to shine during this event, and some pretty interesting match-ups came about between the villains & some unfamiliar opponents throughout the DC line.  Case in point, on of the 2 stories I'll be recapping & commenting on: retired Golden Age hero, Ted Knight (formerly Starman) takes on infrequent Batman foe, Dr. Phosphorus in Starman #13.  And in one of the stories in the 12th issue of the anthology, Showcase '95, Starman-cast member, The Shade, is confronted by the primary antagonist of Underworld Unleashed, Neron!If you're interested in taking the plunge with us, I encourage you to:Download this episode HERE!And please be sure to check out further Underworld Unleashed coverage at these fine sites:Relatively Geeky Podcast Network  Resurrections: An Adam Warlock/Thanos Podcast  The RetroistChrisIsOnInfiniteEarthsCosmic TreadmillThe Pop Culture PalaceRolled Spine's Diana Prince: Wonder Woman PodcastThe Idol-Head of DiaboluJustice's First DawnComic Reviews by WaltJustice Trek: The Podcast Scroll down to see a few images from these issues below, and check out previous episodes of I'm the Gun on iTunes & Google Play!

We have heroes!  They're in "Crisis"!  But this has nothing to do with grim and gritty stories!  Rather... we have another Justice League of America and Justice Society of America team up, and they're BOTH introduced to the Freedom Fighters of Earth-X!  See Superman of Earth-2 act like a total jerk!  Amaze at veiled cameos from Marvel artificial intelligences!  Gasp at how Red Tornado changes between two issues!  All this, plus a MASSIVE listing of monthly adventures, and your listener feedback!  Should you want to beat those Nazis in cracking the email technology barrier of Earth-X, then send some awesome correspondence to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks!

Welcome new writer Gerry Conway to the adventures of the Justice League!  ... And in my eyes, issue 151 FELT like someone finding their footing with the team!  But you'll hear all about it in this new episode! You get such highlights as Green Arrow's rampant jerkaholic behavior, an Amos Fortune appearance I... GASP... kind of like, and even a Batman extended cast cameo!   All this, plus the usual fun and games, and various comic adventures, and your listener feedback!  So don't want for those luck-energy infused people to grant you the power; just feel free to write to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com with any of your feedback!  And as always, thanks for listening!

Welcome back to the days of long and winding episodes!  (If only Hollywood and cover date comics didn't give me so much to talk about!)  But as for the issues proper, we are witness to many amazing things!  Two-Face teaming with the Weaponers of Quard!  Green Lantern getting his butt kicked in back-to-back issues!  Animated statues of Caesar, Napoleon and Franklin that AREN'T in an episode of "Star Trek"!  All this, and your listener feedback, too!  Speaking of which, please feel welcome to release that Drondarrian energy to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks for your time!

The wait for this episode has been longer than a space trip on the city of Mu, and more awkward than social interactions between Batman, Black Canary, and Green Arrow!  So what say we keep this short and sweet, and say I talk about JLA issue 88, "The Last Survivors of Earth!", and address your feedback and other fun stuff!  And hopefully you welcome me back with some feedback sent to justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  Thanks for your time and patience!

It's not midnight... it may still be the podcasting hour... (Sorry, Ryan Daly, I just HAD to!)  On this spook-tacular episode, we're covering an important issue in many respects!  Rutland Halloween Parade with Tom Fagan?  We've got it!  Guest star spots by Len and Glynis Wein, Gerry Conway and Steve Englehart and his cruddy car?  You know it!  Cross company character "crossovers"?  Can't wait to see it!  Ugh... and the Phantom Stranger?  I wish I could deny it... All this, plus what else the team was up to in other books, and your listener feedback!  So don't feel like you have to wait for Old Mistress Sarah to call your name when the bell tolls!  You can write me ANYTIME at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And thanks as always for your time!

You're already going to be spending a long time hearing about TWO giant-sized issues back-to-back, so why worry about a detailed description?!?  So here's some quick bullet points about what you'll hear about! - The marriage... maybe?... of Ray Palmer and Jean Loring! - The boys and girls of the League... fighting? - The Phantom Stranger... actually a team member? (Yeah, right...)   All this and SO much more, including your listener feedback!  So unless you're waiting your 75,000 years under the water to recharge your godly energies, then please feel free to drop some feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com!  And as always, thanks for your time!

Despero is back, and the Justice League has him!  And since Supergirl is showing up for this adventure, you also hear a unique perspective from Doctor Anj of http://comicboxcommentary.blogspot.com/ fame to lend his thoughts to her teaming with the League!  See two different types of alien species, both of whom have equally ridiculous moments!  Hear my joy at actually being able to talk about Elongated Man in a series of issues!  Feel the confusion that Despero feels throughout this entire adventure!  All this, plus extra material and your listener feedback!  So, don't wait for the Krill to get so bored, they contact YOU for endless fights!  You can always be welcome to leave feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, and thanks as always!

Have you been wondering what J'Onn J'Onzz has been up to?  Did you want to meet a new menace that speaks like a Frank Miller comic before those were even a thing?  Can you get out of your head an image I paint that matches a Burt Reynolds movie moment, in relation to the villain?  All this, plus possible Hal and Barry shipping await in my coverage of "Justice League of America" issue 115!  All this, plus extra items and your listener feedback!  So, in the words of the Angry God, "Please... WRITE IN!"  The address is justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, and thanks as always for your time and attention!

We've got a bit issue here... and it's not just due to the increased page count!  In Justice League of America 146, Red Tornado returns!  Hawkgirl is pressed into team election!  The Construct tries a third time to demolish the League!  And Superman acts like a gigantic buttwad, just in time to promote his movie!  All this and more await you!  So let me save you a trip to the Amazonian Memory Chair, and suggest that you leave me some feedback at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, or send some comments on the episode posting!  Thanks as always for your time!

The Randomizer apparently thought I needed some background details about what exactly happened around issues 78 and 79!  So we're here to talk about JLA 130, which is an Untold Tale of that time period where the team was starting their Satellite Era!  Such highlights include a MUCH more satisfying floor plan for the Satellite, Aquaman doing something to Green Arrow we've ALL dreamed about, the Atom sharing a straw with Black Canary, Superman being a member of the I.T. crowd, and a plot point that beat Gene Roddenbery and David Cronenberg to the punch!  All this, plus more fun!  So if you can get your Dharlu-ian section under control, why not send me some feedback?  You can drop me an email at justicesfirstdawning@gmail.com, or leaving a comment on the show's feed!  Thank you for listening, friends!
