Echoes of the Multiverse

In a universe where The JSA predate Superman, my take would be that Starman was Clark's favorite JSAer, and that his own outfit was meant to pay homage to the heroes of that era, Starman in particular. I'm sure that Clark would have liked to meet him, but he thought he'd blow his mind. I'm missing ...
