Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "All-Star Squadron" in English language version.
Calling the resulting group the 'Super-Squad' was intended to differentiate it from the JSA. Also, while I wanted to use the All-Star name for the comic, I knew that, in fact, none of these characters were what readers of the '70s would consider to be 'stars'. Hence, 'Super-Squad'. Which also avoided the acronymic problem presented by the alternative 'All-Star Squad'.
