"Crisis On Infinite Earths" was DC Comics attempt to consolidate years of stories into a single shared universe. This series also brought in characters that DC Comics had acquired from other companies, such as Blue Beetle, Question, Captain Atom, Peacemaker and Nightshade (whom DC had purchased from Charlton Comics).

Comics didn't come any bigger than this. "Crisis on Infinite Earths" was a 12 issue maxi-series featuring nearly every character in DC comics' 50 year history, written and drawn by two of the industry's biggest name talents: Marv Wolfman and George Perez. It was a story that saw hundreds of heroes meet their deaths, worlds literally collide, and a bold streamlining of an entire line of super hero books. Not only the biggest event of the year, it would have ramifications for year to come, dividing DC's history into two halves dubbed Pre and Post Crisis.

The original idea behind Crisis was to create a more fixed universe for the heroes and villains of DC comics to occupy. Over the years, the formerly exciting idea of parallel universes was viewed by some as a convoluted mess. The heroes of the Justice League of America lived on Earth-1, while their older counterparts, the Justice Society of America, fought crime on Earth-2. Earth-3 housed the Crime Syndicate (evil versions of the JLA), while Earth Prime was a world where would-be heroes were relegated to the pages of comic books. There was an Earth for Captain Marvel's exploits, one for the Freedom Fighters and even one for the funny animal adventures of Captain Carrot, among many others.

The universes had grown out of control, and so Wolfman and Perez organized a grand scale team-up. Heroes from all time periods and all walks of life united under the powerful guidance of the Monitor. Many heroes sacrificed their lives in the ensuing battles. Finally, the Anti - Monitor was defeated - but at a great cost. In place of an infinite number of realities, only one remained: a new earth with an untold story and unlimited potential.

Legends of the DC Universe - Crisis on Infinite Earths #1 is a "missing chapter" to the classic Crisis on Infinite Earths reveals the final adventure of two of DC's most beloved characters: Silver Age Flash Barry Allen and the original Supergirl, Kara Zor-El. This extra-sized special takes place between Crisis on Infinite Earths #4 and #5, introducing the heroes of the never-before-glimpsed Earth-D! Flash, Supergirl and a host of characters from the late, great Earth-I team with Earth-D's counterparts to the Justice League in a desperate attempt to save as many lives... from as many Earths...as they can.

Thanks goes to Pudgy and DobisP.R. for this release.

This series was from an era unlike today when creators tried for perfection and comics usually were a good fun read.
Would be great to see an animated feature of this comic but they couldnt do it justice.
This was George Perez at his best.

The original is still the best.

And then, 20 years later, DC went and dipped into the same well with INFINITE CRISIS and finally, 2 years later; FINAL CRISIS.

All or most of the continuity PRE-CRISIS gets brought back into current continuity (before the great reboot - The New 52 or The ENNUI 52)!!!

Oh, the headaches! ;-)

Thanks for the ul, blackcanary, it's still a proven solid classic that withstands the times.

thanks for uploading these. if this is supposed to be on of the greatest crossovers ever, how come there aren't at least 143 tie-in books to go with it?

tdurden83 at 2013-05-21 21:07 CET:

i'm sure no one cares, but when I wrote that last comment, I didn't know there actually were a bunch of tie-ins. oh well, the way they do so many crossovers now is still ridiculous
