About this Collection

This volume continues the Silver Age adventures of DC's original misfit superhero team, collecting issues from the late 1960s. The Chief, Robotman, Negative Man, and Elasti-Girl face bizarre threats and personal turmoil, including the arrival of Beast Boy and a deadly confrontation with the Brotherhood of Evil. It captures the surreal, character-driven storytelling that defined the Doom Patrol's classic run.

In "The Day the World Went Mad!", the Doom Patrol faces a crisis of trust when Elasti-Girl’s wedding to Mento is sabotaged by Cliff and Larry’s desperate scheme—only to unravel further when Rita is blinded in a fight sparked by Mento’s fury. Written by Arnold Drake and illustrated with dynamic precision by Bruno Premiani, this 2020 issue unfolds with emotional stakes and unexpected twists, culminating in a revelation that Madame Rouge was behind the deception. The cover by Bob Brown captures the chaos, as the team races to clear their names and protect their friend.
