Trivia
- "And I Shall Shed My Light": This story establishes that Alan Scott's origin is unknown to the general public, differently from Earthly members of the Green Lantern Corps; The flashback depicting the JSA's battle against Ian Karkull also establishes that All-Star Squadron Annual Vol 1 3 is canonical in the Post-Crisis continuity, but excluding the Earth-Two versions of Superman, Batman and Robin. It also only shows/mentions Ian Karkull and not the villains who helped him, so it is an open question if his helpers were the same in post-Crisis as they were on Earth-Two.
