Ooh, so close to an 80-pager! From 2005, Justice League Unlimited #3, featuring "Small Time" Written by Adam Beechen, pencils by Carlo Barberi, inks by Walden Wong; "Escape from the Slab!" Story and breakdowns by Steve Vance, pencils by John Delaney, inks by Ron Boyd; and "Rolling on the River" Written by Steve Vance, pencils by John Delaney, inks by Ron Boyd.
In the lead story, the Atom discovers a microscopic invasion of the JLA watchtower satellite, and shrinks Wonder Woman, Ice, and Firestorm to help him fight it. (Firestorm has a fair question, "Couldn't we just, you know, step on them?" But there's a fair in-story reason.) Since none of them have shrunk before, Atom has to give them a crash course on the basics, like maybe don't eat a bean burrito before shrinking. Tiny vomit everywhere...
The "Johnny DC" kids books all had bonus pages this month; this issue reprints two shorts from Adventures in the DC Universe. Mr. Miracle gets forced to help a prison break, and Power Girl helps a harbor patrol cop with some hijackers stealing superweapons. The Miracle story is better, partly because it also features Big Barda and Oberon, as well as a recognizable host. There's also some coloring pages, and ads for a ton of games and Kangaroo Jack: G'day, U.S.A.!
