Four decades later, filmmaker and lifelong comic book fan Kevin Miller unpacks the tangled web of continuity, creators, and corporate pressures that gave rise to this multiverse-shattering epic. The Crisis Companion is both a personal love letter to the series and a deep dive into its history, from the classic 1961 Gardner Fox \"Flash of Two Worlds\" story that introduced the concept of multiple Earths, through the annual Justice League\/Justice Society team-ups that led to the complicated DC continuity that Crisis aimed to fix. This book features original interviews with Marv Wolfman, Paul Levitz, Jerry Ordway, Bob Greenberger, Mike DeCarlo, Peter Sanderson, Roy Thomas, Cary Bates, Dan Jurgens, Mike Gold, and others who helped shape the series and the DC Universe itself. It explores how Crisis transformed our perception of comics continuity, redefined superhero storytelling, and introduced the multiverse concept to mainstream culture. This richly layered volume includes a full-color gallery, and a detailed, issue-by-issue commentary and examines the event’s far-reaching consequences, from the rise of endless reboots to the dominance of event-driven publishing. Whether you’re a casual fan or a full-fledged “Crisisologist,” this is the definitive companion to one of the most influential comic book series ever published.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: 0.7em;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eTwomorrows Publishing\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e🏠\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eComic Script\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eKevin Miller\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e✒️\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIllustrations\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eGeorge Perez, Jerry Ordway, Dan Jurgens\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e✏️\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCover Artwork\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eVarious\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e🎨\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eCover Attributes\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eTPB 🧩\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e256 📜\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrim Size (Approx.)\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e8.5 x 11 ✂️\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAge Rating\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eE (Everyone) 🆔️\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC \/ ISBN\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e9781605491356 📖\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eDistributor Code\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e0426TM1151 🆒\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eℹ️ Product specifications provided by distributor ℹ️\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" height=\"79\" width=\"149\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/4596\/7707\/files\/min-plu-dance.gif?v=1744840841\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003csup\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 900;\"\u003eTHE BORING STUFF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csup\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 900;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003csup\u003e⬇️\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h1\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003csup\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 900;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch5 class=\"_p_nvzmr_104\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eQuality \u0026amp; Condition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003ePre-sales: 9.0+ grade standard (may include minor spine ticks or slight cover marks)\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eBlind Bags\/Boxes: 8.0+ grade standard (contents accepted as-is)\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eReleased titles: Same 9.0+ standard as pre-sales, unless stated otherwise\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eIndustry-standard imperfections possible: printing variations, minor ink bleeds, slight creases\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003ch6 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eIssues?
