I wish we could go back and have D C Comics assign Ed Mc Guinness to do the artwork to the adaptation. That would have rocked. D C should have also done a Justice League Secret Origins adaptation.

Joe Staton's artwork seems to benefit from him having access to production art. Many of these panels look like frames from the actual shows.

Unfortunately, I didn't much care for the anime-meets-Joe-Staton style of the shows, either, so this issue isn't one I often come back to.

That doesn't keep it from being a very faithful adaptation of World's Finest, though.
