World's Finest Comics #251

In "Invasion of the Deathless Brain," Aquaman and Aqualad find themselves in the middle of a strange and sudden crisis when a tidal wave threatens a tiny research submarine. After rescuing the scientists, the team shares a moment of levity with Hostess Twinkies—though the dolphins, who did most of the work, are left out. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and brought to life with Curt Swan’s precise art and Vince Colletta’s inks, this 1978 adventure blends underwater drama with a touch of whimsy. The cover by Jim Aparo captures the moment with bold, dynamic flair.
