Greatest Comic Covers # 6

Batman Battles The Living Beast Bomb!

Well, this cover includes 2 of my favorite things in the world – Batman and Apes. If Evil Robots from outer space were included, all a fella would need would be a pizza and life would be perfect! In any case, Bats manages to outwit the Beast Bomb in about 22 pages, which shows to go you, some days you just can’t get rid of a ‘Beast Bomb!’

I tell you, 50s and 60s DC comics have some pretty mindblowing covers!

Look Out! It’s – it’s Batbaby & Robin!

Wow, not a lot I can say about this comic cover. Evidently the Dark Knight Detective overcame his transformation to a toddler to come back and strike fear into the hearts of criminals. They are a cowardly & superstitious lot, after all.

A shame that Batbaby was never spun off into his own comic! Now, that’s something I’d pay to see!

A Lady Superhero’s Problems

Well, the caped crusaders weren’t getting much of an assist from Batgirl on the cover of Detective Comics # 371. The Dynamic Duo had their hands full with a load of tough-looking customers, and Batgirl seems more concerned with a run in her tights!

Dig Now, Die Later!

One of the most morbid covers I have ever seen is the cover of Worlds Finest # 195, featuring The Man of Steel and The Dark Knight Detective forcing young Jimmy Olsen and Robin the Boy Wonder to dig their own graves!

I can’t say I know what this whole thing is about, but knowing DC comics of the era a bit, no doubt it’s some trick to fool some crooks for some reason. DC went to that well very very often in the 1960s and 1970s, and this looks like another instance!
