How could no writer have come up with this idea already?

Robin
Sandy
Speedy
Wing
Stuff
Star-Spangled Kid
Merry, Girl of 1,000 Gimmicks

Plus, appearances by: The Minute Men of America (Hourman's kid gang), The Newsboy Legion and the Boy Commandos!

It would be like the liason team between the JSA and the 7 Seven Soldiers of Victory.

Who else am I missing?

Actually they could have been a cool team in the 1950's and 1960's!

Dan the Dyna-Mite!


There's actually a nice scene in the issue of All-Star Squadron where they have the first general meeting of all the Golden Age heroes, and the sidekicks are standing around comparing notes.

^ Love that scene too EDE!

I think the Young All-Stars might have been intended to be the Golden Age Teen Titans or at least their version of the Titans (since I don't think any or them were actually Teens anymore).

That book had Sandy and Dan the Dyna-Mite and maybe Merry in it I think. I never read it though.

Actually, in the Elseworlds 80-Page Giant they did a one-page spoof about Golden Age Titans.

The Red Bee and Black Condor look like they're kinda wondering what might happen if they mix their colors... HOT! smile

I remember reading this issue very well.

These tales need to be reprinted up to CRISIS anyway. From there it gets hinky.

Seriously! I'd plumped cash down for that, and I haven't bought anything comics related in well over a year!

That was back when superhero teams meeting one another still felt like something majestic.

Ooh, to be able to have someone recapture that feeling!

That's a meeting of pretty much every super-hero in existence!

Could you imagine doing that now, with how bloated the DCU has become?

Um, I actually had an idea a while back, about a Golden Age Teen Titans. It was an Elseworlds tale.

Robin, Speedy, Dan the Dyna-Mite, Merry, and a bunch of other teen sidekicks are left behind to watch over crime in America while their mentors are off in Germany. One day, a badly wounded Green Lantern, Alan Scott, manages to make it back to Gotham, warning them that the heroes need help. And then dies.

The heroes put together a ragtag team of teen heroes and sidekicks, also including a newly arrived Wonder Girl, along with Etta Candy and the Holliday College girls, head to Germany to save their mentors and friends.

Ooh, cool picture!

Some of my old (long dead) favorites! Air-Wave! Sargon the Sorcerer!

Even TNT and Dyna-Mite bring back some fond memories.

Wow, 45+ heroes and all of four of them are women. No wonder Phantom Lady is getting so much attention... (And Speedy gave up and started flirting with Wing.)
