Pérez, who in 1980 was briefly drawing Avengers, Justice League, and New Teen Titans at the same time, was the obvious choice for the art. Marvel and DC originally commissioned a Justice League of America/Avengers crossover in 1983, as a follow-up to DC and Marvel’s massively successful Uncanny X-Men/ New Teen Titans crossover. The Hero Initiative edition includes a bonus: a new afterword by Kurt Busiek.

It also features 64 pages of companion content and will reprint introductions by original Avengers writer/editor Stan Lee and Justice League of America editor Julius Schwartz. The book carries a retail price of $29.99, and is limited to 7,000 copies. This 288-page full color, softbound volume features the original 2003 four-issue co-publishing venture between DC and Marvel, written by Kurt Busiek with art by George Pérez.
