Strange Adventures #24
In "The Golden Eggs from Saturn!", a Martian emissary named Exerel ventures to Earth in search of laughter—a mystery utterly foreign to his people. He finds an unlikely guide in Bud Hadley, a former comedian on the run from the law, whose past may hold the key to understanding joy. Written by Robert Starr and illustrated by Jim Mooney, with a striking cover by Murphy Anderson and Sy Barry, this 1952 DC classic blends cosmic curiosity with a touch of offbeat humor.
