Kamandi, the Last Boy on Earth #40

A towering reptilian Lizard Lord clutches a helpless Kamandi — the blond, blue-booted Last Boy on Earth — by the wrist, dangling him with casual menace against a dusty, post-apocalyptic landscape dotted with smaller figures in the background. Joe Kubert's cover art brings an immediate sense of scale and dread, the green-armored creature looming over its captive with unmistakable authority. With Gerry Conway and Paul Levitz scripting and Jack Kirby providing interior art, this 1976 DC adventure promises the wild, imaginative energy that made Kamandi one of the Bronze Age's most compelling series.
