Justice League of America #51

Mike Sekowsky and Joe Giella's cover for this February 1967 issue crackles with urgency: Batman lunges forward amid dramatic walls of flame while Zatanna — in her signature top hat, tuxedo jacket, and fishnet stockings — reaches out beside him, with the Elongated Man's stretched form visible in the lower foreground. The cover boldly promises "the greatest manhunt of all time," with Batman leading the Justice League alongside the spell-casting Zatanna in a story titled "Z — as in Zatanna — and Zero Hour!" Gardner Fox scripted the adventure, with interior art by Sekowsky inked by Sid Greene, making this a solid creative team firing on all cylinders at the height of Silver Age DC storytelling.
