Since The All-Star Squadron team has not been formed yet, all participants are considered as Guest-Stars.
All Characters listed are considered to be the Golden Age/Earth-Two version unless noted.
The Earth-Two/Golden Age versions of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and Robin ( and possibly Plastic Man )no longer exist in current Post-Crisis Continuity, but their appearances will still be tracked when possible.
Chronological Comments: Per Degaton's time travelling occurs roughly at the same time as All-Star Comics# 35.
