“Five Characters in Search of a Plot!”

DC's lovable band of bumbling heroes finally gets their own title with The Inferior Five #1, and the cover by Mike Sekowsky and Mike Esposito sets the tone perfectly. The five misfit crime-fighters are shown in gloriously chaotic fashion — tumbling, clinging, and hollering "Follow that car!" as they scramble onto and around a speeding antique automobile packed with a motley crew of villains, while a mysterious helmeted figure lurks ominously in the foreground. It's a warm, wonderfully silly snapshot of 1967 DC at its most playful, promising readers a superhero comedy unlike anything else on the spinner rack.
