Superboy & the Legion of Super-Heroes #239

May 1978 · DC · 0.60 USD
“Murder Most Foul”

In "Murder Most Foul," Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes face a bizarre crisis when a sudden rockslide threatens a train and a group of children—only for Wonder Woman to use Hostess Twinkies as an unexpected distraction to guide them to safety. Penciled by Curt Swan with inks by Vince Colletta and letters by Ben Oda, this 1978 DC adventure blends high-stakes heroism with a uniquely offbeat moment, all captured on a cover by Jim Starlin, Mike Grell, and Joe Rubinstein.
