About the series
In the early 1970s, DC Comics raced onto newsstands with this six-issue series based on the iconic toy cars, blending high-octane adventure with the sleek, kinetic art of talents like Alex Toth, Neal Adams, and Ric Estrada. Writers Joe Gill and Len Wein drove stories of daring drivers and their souped-up vehicles, turning the brand into a playground for speed and spectacle. Though short-lived, the series stands as a vivid snapshot of the era's pop-culture synergy and a showcase for some of comics' most dynamic visual storytellers.
