Show notes provided by Joe Peluso

Just imagine walking to the corner drug store, swinging the door wide
open, your eyes fixated on the comic spinner rack--and like a bolt
from the blue--there it is, in all its four-color glory--the first
appearance of The Justice League of America!
   Well, it didn't quite happen like that for me when I first
discovered the JLA. I was only four when B&B #28 hit the stands in
late 1959. Little Joe (no relation to the Cartwright clan) purchased
his first copy of a JLA mag when he was ten, but he would discover
this gem years later at one of Phil Seuling's New York Comic Cons.
    Join your long-winded "corner" host Joe, and fellow comic book
historian James as they mine the JLA's initial bow, and all the
riotous ramifications it would wrought on the Silver Age of comics.
From the fertile minds of Julius Schwartz, Gardner Fox and Mike
Sekowsky, to a golf game played by competing publishing "moguls", to
the fascinating construction of the team, this is definitely a seminal
episode of the Mint Podcast created for the discriminating comic book
historian!
