The Brave and the Bold #54

Robin carries an unconscious Kid Flash to safety while flames erupt around a city street — and looming above in a dark, spiraling whirlwind stands a menacing figure hurling the taunt that if Kid Flash and Aqualad couldn't stop his fire-storm, Robin doesn't stand a chance. Bruno Premiani's cover pulls three of DC's teen heroes together in a high-stakes scenario that crackles with urgency, setting the stage for "The Thousand-and-One Dooms of Mr. Twister." At just 12 cents, this July 1964 issue of The Brave and the Bold is a vivid snapshot of Silver Age DC at its most energetic.
