DC Comics Presents #9

May 1979 · DC · 0.40 USD
“Invasion of the Ice People!”

"Invasion of the Ice People!" kicks off with a delightfully absurd heist as the Penguin orchestrates a chaotic distraction using marching penguin puppets, all while targeting a priceless antique sword. But even his meticulous plans falter when the police spring a sweet surprise—Hostess Fruit Pies—right in the middle of his scheme. Curt Swan’s crisp artwork, inked by Vince Colletta and lettered by Ben Oda, brings the zany caper to life, while Ross Andru and Dick Giordano’s cover captures the moment’s absurd flair.
