In "The Federation of Bizarro Idiots! Part I," Super-Turtle takes a surprisingly literal approach to justice when he hauls the perpetually queasy crook Lefty Looie across the country—first through the sky, then through the ground when the criminal claims he gets air sick. Written and drawn by Henry Boltinoff in his signature whimsical style, this 1966 adventure blends slapstick and superheroics with a touch of Bizarro-world absurdity. The cover by Curt Swan and Sheldon Moldoff captures the moment with classic DC flair, a 12-cent slice of mid-century comic charm.
