“When Earth Turned Into a Comet!”

DC's science-fiction anthology series delivers a genuinely unsettling premise with issue #3: the Earth itself blazing across the cosmos as a comet, its familiar continents visible within a fiery, streaking mass of orange flame against the star-flecked void. Neal Adams' cover artwork puts two spacesuited figures on what appears to be a lunar or alien surface — one recoiling in apparent alarm, another standing at a distance near a rocket vehicle — as they bear witness to this impossible, world-altering spectacle overhead. John Broome and Gil Kane bring their sci-fi storytelling craft to the interior, making this 1970 DC anthology a fine pick for fans of that era's imaginative, high-concept space adventure.
