Superman #202
In "The Shame of the Bizarro Family!", Bizarro #1 takes a bizarre stand after watching a broadcast that calls Frankenstein the scariest monster—determined to prove he’s even more terrifying, he journeys to Earth to settle the matter. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Wayne Boring with inks by Stan Kaye, this 1967 classic features Curt Swan and George Klein on the cover.
In "Bizarro's Amazing Buddies!", a delightfully off-kilter adventure unfolds when Bizarro, ever the misunderstood hero, stumbles upon Mary Shelley—just as she's brainstorming her legendary tale. With a mix of chaos and curiosity, he encounters Titano, only to find himself accused by the citizens of Bizarro World of stealing the idea from a movie they’ve never seen.
Bizarro #1, inspired by a TV broadcast featuring Charlie Chaplin and a film actor portraying Frankenstein's Monster, sets off to prove he’s the true scariest monster—only to find Earth’s idea of horror is far stranger than he expected. With the Abominable Snowman making a brief appearance on screen, Bizarro’s mission takes a turn as he confronts the very notion of what it means to be feared.
