Bannings: If you're not nice
AnyWAN else get a special kick out of comic book covers which show miniature reproductions of other comics' covers? This concept has always thrilled me, for some reason.

I loved stuff like that.... Action Comics 500 is a great example of that with recursion going on as well

Icecream.

Man, I miss words on the cover. And those cool misleading covers, too!

Batman #200 was one I got in downtown Denver at an old used bookstore, back before there was such a thing as comic book stores.

Action #500, Superboy & The Legion of Super-Heroes #250, and Brave and
the Bold #150 were some of my favorite covers as a kid. DC had a trend in
the late 70s of those cover montages.

It might have been the world's finest team up in a comic yet, Ian.

Cosmic Boy, costume designed by Mike Grell. I loved his LSH art, but I have to say, his costume designs tended to be off. At least they didn't show Colossal Boy's costume.

Cosmic Boy's costume stayed up because it had magnetic threads in it.
