Superman #266 from August 1973 promises a genuinely wild showdown, with Nick Cardy's cover depicting the Man of Steel driving a full-force punch straight into a massive, snarling Abominable Snowman, the impact erupting in a blinding burst of ice and energy. A second Superman streaks across the top of the cover in miniature, hinting that something unusual is already in motion before the fight even begins. With Elliot S! Maggin scripting and Dick Dillin and Joe Giella handling interior art, this is a fine slice of early-'70s DC adventure at its most gloriously strange.
