“Listen to the Mocking Bird!”

"Listen to the Mocking Bird!" in Green Lantern #98 (1977) offers a rare behind-the-scenes peek at DC Comics’ creative process, spotlighting the writing of the newest Superman Dollar Comic by Cary Bates, sparked by an idea from John LaMartine. The issue also notes the end of the DC Direct Currents phone hotline, a casualty of its own popularity in an era when phone lines weren’t built for such demand. Cover by Mike Grell.
