Manic Monday--LaborDay Was Different One Earth-1!

See, on our world, we were used to the Jerry Lewis telethon.

On Earth-1, however?




$10 million? Really? I wonder how America would react if they knew that Bruce Wayne and Oliver Queen were manning those phones, and could have donated that much and had enough left over to buy the moon...or that Aquaman recovers that much sunken treasure every single day...

Still, a super-hero telethon is a tradition DC should revive...if only to raise the funds to buy the rights to the Legion Of Super-Heroes and let someone who is actually interested in the franchise publish it.

From Justice League Of America #114 (1974)

I can just see the next day's headline:

NATIONWIDE SUPER-CRIME RAMPAGE

Super-criminals run amuck while the entire Justice League spend eight hours at telethon!
