Steve Pick said...: What a beautiful book - 1968 was a great year for art in DC, as they tried desperately to figure out what made Marvel so successful. Just compare the kind of layouts Kane had been forced to until maybe a year or so before this book - what incredible freedom he had here, and boy, did he rise to the challenge of depicting a pretty darn ridiculous story.

I really don't remember any 29-page stories back then, though. How did that happen?; 3 November 2010 23:43
Mykal said...: Absolutely fabulous! Well done. I love the metal men, and Kane always seemed at his best (or at least most extravagant) layout-wise with this title. Love it.; 4 November 2010 17:23
Johnny B said...: What? No cover?

I've read this comic a hundred thousand times, I bet- I had it when I was a kid; age 8 in 1968. I bet I still have the worn-out, yellowed, coverless copy somewhere.; 6 November 2010 01:26
