This discussion inspired me to go and buy the George Perez JLA collection, which had the two JLA/JSA/New Gods stories drawn by Perez. The dialogue and plot are clearly aimed at 12 year olds (I initally thought it had dated, but then I remembered: back in those days comics were being written for that demographic!) but elements of it is quite cute, notably the Power Girl/Firestorm burgeoning romance, which I'd forgotten.
One nasty scene has a simulcrum of Darkseid made of stone brutalising the three Injustice Society members into submission. It actually looks as if Darkseid is smashing Icicle in the nuts with his giant rock finger.
