Strange Adventures #147

This December 1962 DC anthology delivers a cover that stops you cold: a loincloth-clad prehistoric warrior rides a giant pterodactyl while hurling a weapon, as modern jet fighters streak past in a fiery clash overhead — a collision of ancient and atomic-age worlds rendered with crisp, confident linework by Murphy Anderson. The banner promises two distinct thrills, an Atomic Knights adventure billed as "The King of New Orleans!" alongside the featured tale "The Dawn-World Menace!" At 12 cents, Strange Adventures #147 captures everything exciting about early-'60s DC sci-fi — big ideas, bold visuals, and a genuinely irresistible premise.
