I have a special love for the 1999 version of JSA that was created by James Robinson and David Goyer. Geoff Johns gets most of the credit for this version, which is fine.
I've heard that Robinson and Goyer had mapped out the first 15 issues (which were my favorites of the run) and that Johns came in to dialogue most of it and then eventually took over the book. Whether that is correct or not, there is definitely a different feel to those first 15 issues than what came afterwards. Whoever was responsible did an amazing job.
Of those early issues, which characters did you feel really belonged in the book ongoing?
Poll coming.
