Story 1 34 pages superhero
Storyline

Some unknown force is disrupting the fabric of time and pulling the Earth out of orbit. Volcanoes explode, dinosaurs rampage, and heroes from all times pop up everywhere. Green Lantern, Atom, Flash, and Adam Strange fly to an orbiting spaceship and battle gold robots. Lois Lane, Creeper, and the Challengers fly to the Rocky Mountains to crack a big green alien box. Metal Men and Teen Titans quash Vikings and Nazis. Phantom Stranger gathers heroes and holds a seance to summon the Spectre; together they return the Earth to its orbit. Lois Lane and Angel O'Day repel the alien responsible.

Story Notes

Features almost every character who ever appeared in Showcase. A later letter column stated this issue is "just for fun", so non-canonical, not a real DCU story. Letters page in this issue says that Nightmaster appears on page 8, although he does not seem to be in the issue at all.
