Dexter's Laboratory #2

DC and Cartoon Network's Dexter's Laboratory #2 (October 1999) throws its boy-genius hero right into the action — the cover, penciled by Genndy Tartakovsky, puts a small robot in boxing gloves square in the middle of a wrestling ring, staring down two enormous, menacing pink opponents looming from either side. It's a wonderfully lopsided matchup that perfectly captures the show's spirit of big danger meeting scrappy ingenuity. With a story from Tartakovsky and Craig McCracken and the bold declaration "Second Spectacular Issue!" right on the cover, this one delivers the chaotic cartoon fun fans were looking for.
