“Funeral by Fire”

In "Funeral by Fire," a 1979 issue of Weird War Tales, an alien UFO hurtles toward a mountain, setting off a tense, surreal chain of events. With Curt Swan's art and Vince Colletta's inks bringing the scene to life, the story unfolds as Superman carves a tunnel ahead of the craft, while children who first made contact with the aliens offer them Twinkies in a moment both bizarre and oddly tender. George Evans' cover captures the scene’s eerie, otherworldly tone.
