For the 50th issue . . DC pulled out all of the stops. First of all is the huge cast of artistic talent that participated in this issue. Our 2 covers are by Ethan Van Sciver and Ed McGuinness. Interiors are done by Ed Benes, Matthew Clark, Allan Goldman and Ian Churchill. The story is by Michael Green and Mike Johnson, and it takes us all the way back to the beginning of both of these heroes. The second 'coup that DC pulls here is showing us how these 2 characters have been linked since before they were born. I don't want to give away the whole story, because I really think you should go out and get this one. You know how they say it's a smaller world than we would like to believe? Well, it's a smaller universe also. Krypton and Jor-el have a definite connection to Bruce's family and have had more of an impact on Gotham than anyone knows. On the opposite side, the Wayne's have a direct connection to the House of El, and helped in determining young Jor-el's final destination. If you want to know how . . pick up the book and read it. Really . . you won't be disappointed. This was a fantastic anniversary issue for a spectacular series. Long live the World's Finest.
