The Brave and the Bold #29

In "Challenge of the Weapons Master!", the enigmatic Xotar journeys from the distant year 11,960 to the present day, armed with a mysterious ancient book and a series of powerful weapons, seeking to prove which one can best challenge the Justice League. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated by Mike Sekowsky, with inks by Bernard Sachs and Joe Giella, and lettering by Gaspar Saladino, this 1960 classic features a bold clash of wills and technology. The cover, penciled by Sekowsky and inked by Murphy Anderson, captures the high-stakes tension of Xotar’s trial by combat.
