DC Comics Presents #15

The cover by Joe Staton and Frank McLaughlin delivers an immediately memorable image: a massive green alien dominates the yellow background, hurling a helpless Superman like a weapon straight into a grown-to-giant-size Atom, who cries out in a speech bubble — "I've been clobbered with the hardest object that giant alien could find — Superman!" It's a delightfully absurd premise rendered with real energy, pairing two of DC's most distinct heroes in a situation where even the Man of Steel is being used as a blunt instrument. "Plight of the Giant Atom!" promises exactly the kind of wildly imaginative 1979 DC adventure that made this team-up anthology such a treat.
