Plastic Man #18
In "Professor Klean the Mad Crusader," Plastic Man teams up with Batman and Robin in a bizarre showdown when the Pigeon Person unleashes massive flocks to steal iconic landmarks—starting with the Statue of Liberty and aiming for Mount Rushmore. With Curt Swan’s dynamic art and Vince Colletta’s crisp inks, the trio thwarts her plans using an unexpected weapon: Hostess Cup Cakes. The cover by Ramona Fradon and Bob Smith captures the absurdity perfectly, making this a standout 1977 DC oddity.
