Adventure Comics #415

Adventure Comics #415 (February 1972) delivers one of the more unsettling cover premises of its era: Supergirl lies unconscious on the floor of what appears to be a space vessel, surrounded by a crowd of sinister green-uniformed aliens, while a gloating figure declares "My happy bride has arrived… let the wedding begin!" Bob Oksner's cover art captures the tension vividly, with the Maid of Might rendered helpless at the center of a deeply unwelcome ceremony. Rounding out this 52-page package are backup features starring Zatanna the Magician and Animal Man, making this an especially generous slice of early-'70s DC storytelling.
