If any of you are diving into the JSA stories from the Golden Age, you may notice that there is a gap currently in the original run.
#39-49 and 52-53 are currently unavailable.
However…
A couple of them were reprinted in other comics that ARE available.
#40 - “The Plight of a Nation” can be found in Justice League of America (1960) #110
#41 - “The Case of the Patriotic Crimes” can be found in Justice League of America (1960) #113
Thank you =)
I’m about to go into each individual character.
Formatting the JSA info above to match.
These will list all (currently) available stories.

This is really helpful. Might also be nice to post which missing issues were full of reprints as well. During the sixties and seventies most of DC’s series ran the occasional giant size issue that reprinted older stories instead of including any new material.
Note: I’m only listing reprints if they are available (I’m actually going into each issue to verify they’re included in the digital versions), and only if the original issues are not available.
So reprints of issues that are available are not being listed.
Anyways, I’m off to get the next five done.
Be back shortly.
@TheDemonEtrigan,
Good idea!
I may include a post at the end that lists all the 100-Page Specials from that era.
Note: I missed New York World’s Fair #2 on Batman’s list.
It should be listed under ‘Originals’.

Another break while I get the next set ready.
Meanwhile, here’s an alternate JSA profile I cobbled together using an image of the Golden Age JSA (minus the Silver Age additions).
