Superboy & the Legion of Super-Heroes #253
In "Night of the Super-Assassins!", Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes team up for a wild ride when a mysterious villain targets Gotham’s finest chefs, turning a culinary heist into a high-stakes showdown. With Curt Swan’s crisp art and Vince Colletta’s dynamic inks bringing the action to life, this 1979 DC classic sees Batman outwit the kidnapper with a surprisingly sweet twist—hosting a cupcake-powered trap that leads straight to Foxx’s doorstep. Dick Giordano’s cover captures the absurd flair perfectly, a 40-cent comic full of bold, over-the-top fun.
