“"Agony at the Academy or "A Scrap'll Floor the Teacher!"”

In "Agony at the Academy or 'A Scrap'll Floor the Teacher!'" from Showcase #65 (1966), Dean Egghead’s Academy for Super-Heroes faces chaos when every hero from the JLA to Super-Hip refuses to teach—leaving him with no choice but to hire the Inferior Five. As the bumbling team struggles through class, their mishaps grow increasingly absurd, from being turned to stone to getting doused and iced. Just as hope flickers with the arrival of a fan club, the real threat emerges: the Fraternity of Atavistic No-Goodnicks, ready to turn the school into a wrecking ball. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and illustrated by Mike Sekowsky with inks by Mike Esposito, the cover by Sekowsky and Esposito captures the absurd energy of the tale.

At Dean Egghead's Academy for Super-Heroes, the staff quits. The JLA, Metal Men, Doom Patrol, Metamorpho, and even Super-Hip turn him down, so the dean is reduced to hiring the Inferior Five as teachers. They bumble through lessons, getting zapped to stone, doused, iced, and otherwise damaged. But Dean Egghead has hope. A fan club is coming to visit. Except it's really the Fraternity of Atavistic No-Goodnicks (FAN) bent on destruction!
