DC Direct Returns To The Golden Age
|
 DC Direct, the merchandise arm of DC Comics, has done it yet again with the latest wave of figures announced by the fan favorite company.This new assortment of highly-detailed, fully-articulated action figures has the orginal Justice Society of America as it's theme. This wave consists of four figures: Wonder Woman, Green Lantern (Alan Scott), The Flash (Jay Garrick), and Starman (Ted Knight). The Justice Society of America, a precursor to the later Justice League of America, first formed in All-Star Comics #3, published in 1940. The JSA was comprised of characters who, at the time, didn't have their own comic book series. Look for more DC Direct items in tomorrow's RTM News. [Updated 4/18/2000]
