JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA
Golden Age DC Titles: Flash Comics
104 issues (Jan. 1940–Feb. 1949)
All-American Comics was the first title published by National "sister company," of the same name (sans hyphen). In essence, DC's co-owner, Max Gaines was unable to convince his partner, xx to expand DC's production. Gaines then went into partnership with xx to form All American Comics. The two companies shared a printer and much of the same staff.
