Rip Hunter... Time Master #19

A crash-landing in ancient Egypt has never looked more precarious — the cover by Bill Ely drops Rip Hunter squarely into Cleopatra's court, where the raven-haired queen stands over kneeling captives as Rip, dressed in his green jumpsuit, is mistaken for Julius Caesar himself. The scene crackles with palace-intrigue tension, a dagger at the ready and a death sentence already spoken, while a caption teases "Cleopatra's Deadly Trap" waiting inside. This 1964 DC adventure promises exactly the kind of breathless historical time-travel trouble that made Rip Hunter one of comics' most entertaining globe- — and era- — hopping heroes.
