Adventure Comics #336

The cover of this September 1965 issue promises something genuinely tantalizing: a hooded, chained master criminal named Starfinger has just been unmasked, and a stunned Superboy — along with several shocked Legionnaires — can barely believe what they're seeing, while a display board behind them shows the portrait headshots of nearly a dozen Legion members, including Shrinking Violet, Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl, Lightning Lad, Triplicate Girl, Ultra Boy, Colossal Boy, Element Lad, Invisible Kid, and others as potential suspects. Cover pencils by Curt Swan and inks by George Klein give the scene a crisp, expressive energy perfectly suited to the mystery at hand. With writer Edmond Hamilton and artist John Forte on the interior, "The True Identity of Starfinger!" sets up a whodunit that cuts right to the heart of the Legion itself.
