Notes

This issue is not so much a story as a series of previously undocumented conversations among Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman showcasing their relationships throughout their shared history. The "storyline" jumps back and forth between events of the past and possible future events. All the events of the past are shown in chronological order (least recent to most recent). It is possible the future events are also meant to be chronological.
Each "moment in time" is depicted (artistically) in a style reminiscent of the time in which the event would have occurred. The "all-star cast of artists" may also have been matched up with the time periods depicted (past events only, of course).
Apart from events #1 and #19, each conversation/time depiction is told in a single page (the latter 2 are only a few panels).

Trivia

In #3, Oliver Queen is Hal Jordan's best man. Hal Jordan's bride is not named but she is not long-time love interest Carol Ferris.
