All-Star Squadron #17

Published in January 1983, All-Star Squadron #17 is a notable entry in the DC Comics series created by writer Roy Thomas. The series was designed to revisit the Golden Age of Comics, utilizing DC's vast catalog of 1940s characters and placing them within the continuity of World War II. Thomas, a noted historian of the medium, sought to harmonize the disparate timelines of the Justice Society of America and other wartime heroes, offering a nostalgic yet structurally rigorous look at the company's early years.

The issue features artwork by Jerry Ordway, whose clean, classic style became a hallmark of the series during this era. The narrative continues the complex arcs typical of the title, focusing on the team's ongoing involvement in the global conflict. The series was generally well-received by fans of continuity-heavy storytelling, as it effectively bridged the gap between the modern DC Universe and its foundational roots through detailed research and character-driven subplots.
