Probably the New Gods story I liked best: the JLA/JSA/New Gods team-up.
Although, Firestorm does somehow manage to turn the Omega Force back onto Darkseid using a plastic Matchbox toy car loop. Which seemed
dumb to me even as a 15 year old.
That was a good one in many facets.
It was the first issue penciled by George Perez (Dick Dillin, who had penciled over 100 issues, had died very suddenly of a heart attack),
and with the possible exception of a cameo or two in his CRISIS run, is Perez's only work on the New Gods.
It was also the first JLA/JSA/New Gods crossover.
And one of many covers from the brief 1977-1980 period where Starlin had quit Marvel (because of a conflict with Shooter), and did a
number of stories for DC (in LEGION and DC COMICS PRESENTS, and DETECTIVE COMICS 481-482), before returning to Marvel. But for a
long time Starlin would only work with Marvel's Epic line editor Archie Goodwin, and avoided working directly with Shooter.
It was fun to see Starlin as a DC cover artist.
Perez also quit Marvel because of Shooter, and was vocal about his contempt for Shooter in the COMICS JOURNAL in 1980 when he left.
