Crisis on Multiple Earths Episode 004 "The Crises on Earths One & Two"

The Justice Society of Earth-2, Golden Aged Costumed Heroes defending freedom against Axis Forces and costumed villains that prey on the weak.

The Justice League of America of Earth-1, heroes born out of the atomic age and space race defending the world from colorfully costumed villains and evil cosmic conquerors.

There would then come a time when these costumed heroes would answer an even greater calling, to save not only their own world, but parallel worlds with alternate versions of themselves. Two Generations of costumed heroes on two separate parallel earths, teaming-up to save millions, and so began the exploits of the Earth 2 Justice Society and their Earth 1 Justice League counterparts, in a series of crossover adventures that can only be described as CRISIS ON MULTIPLE EARTHS!

Welcome to the 4th Episode of the Crisis on Multiple Earths Podcast, the podcast where I explore the Silver & Bronze Age Crisis on Multiple Earths crossovers between the JLA heroes of Earth-One and the JSA heroes of Earth-Two. This time out we have the first full-on crossover between the JLA and JSA teams, courtesy of the 2-parter in Justice League of America #21 & 22 from the summer of 1963.

As always, you can download and subscribe to the podcast via iTunes, or directly download the episode here: Crisis on Multiple Earths Ep 004 JLA #21 & 22

As I mentioned in the episode, I have re-released the first 3 episodes of the Crisis on Multiple Earths Podcast in MP3 Format, those are available for download at the below links:

CRISIS ON MULTIPLE EARTHS Ep 003 Flash #137

Welcome to the second episode of the CRISIS ON MULTIPLE EARTHS PODCAST, a show dedicated to covering the stories chronicling the adventures and team-ups of the Justice Society of America of Earth-2 and their Earth-1 counterparts the Justice League of America. Each episode will be devoted to a single issue of one of these Crisis crossovers, so join me, your host Kyle Benning, as I chronologically work through the 8 volumes of Crisis on Multiple Earths and Crisis on Multiple Earth Team-Ups TPBs. 

This time out I once again dive into the Crisis on Multiple Earths Volume 1 TPB to examine the second meeting of the Flash of Earth-1 Barry Allen and the Flash of Earth-2 Jay Garrick, as told in the story from Flash #137, titled "Vengeance of the Immortal Villain." The issue originally went on sale April 18th 1963 and was written by Gardner Fox, penciled by Carmine Infantino, and inked by Joe Giella.

You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes under the King-Size Comics Giant Size Fun Podcast feed, or download the episode directly here:CRISIS ON MULTIPLE EARTHS EP 003 Flash #137


As I mentioned in the podcast, the mask Hawkman wears in this one is a unique "hybrid" mask of sorts that only ever appears in this issue, never to be seen again. Check out the mask Hawkman wore in Flash #137:

Compared to the mask he wore in Flash Comics #96: 

And finally the yellow cowl mask he wore in All-Star Comics #57 and wears in next episode's adventure Justice League of America #21.

 During the episode I read feedback from 2 listeners and mention their fine online blog & podcasting efforts. Please check out their respective blogs & podcasts at the below links.
