Suicide Squad #59

The Mystery of the Atom!" splashed across the top sets an intriguing tone for this November 1991 issue, and the cover by Geof Isherwood and Karl Kesel delivers a striking image to match: Superman, Batman, and Aquaman stand as a formidable wall of DC power, their body language tense and guarded, while a diminutive figure in red — the Atom — runs urgently toward the viewer from between them. Writers John Ostrander and Kim Yale kick off "Legerdemain, Part One: Forces in Motion," promising a story where DC's heaviest hitters and a size-changing hero are somehow entangled with Task Force X. It's a genuinely compelling setup for one of the more ambitious issues in this run.
