In his deep-dive on Crisis on Infinite Earths, Ross frames the classic crossover as a historic milestone that completely redefined comic book storytelling by pioneering the modern company-wide event. He places a heavy emphasis on how the story has been preserved over the years, detailing how it produced an array of distinct collected editions including the massive, tie-in-heavy Omnibus, the oversized slipcase Absolute Edition, and the accessible, core-focused Trade Paperback. A central highlight of his analysis is the structural mapping of the DC Finest format. Episode 1 starts with Crisis #1.      #COIE #CrisisOnInfiniteEarths #DCComics #AllStarSquadron #Firestorm #InfinityInc #DetectiveComics #MarvWolfman #GeorgePerez #RoyThomas #Multiverse #EarthOne #EarthTwo  #DCFinest

The guys also make sure to give plenty of love to Jack Kirby's The Demon #4, celebrating how "The King" laid down the dark, folkloric, and monstrous framework that Moore heavily honors and builds upon in this classic crossover story.   #SwampThing #AlanMoore #SteveBissette #KarenBerger #TheDemon #Etrigan #JackKirby #DCComics #HorrorComics  #JasonBlood #ComicArt #VertigoComics
