With Curt Swan’s crisp art and Vince Colletta’s dynamic inks bringing the scene to life, this quirky tale blends slapstick and suspense in a way only 1979’s DC could deliver. The cover by Ross Andru and Dick Giordano captures the zany energy perfectly, making this a must-have for fans of classic comic oddities.
