ADVENTURE COMICS #497







Adventure Comics by this point had become a digest-sized anthology title. This issue in particular relates no less than six--yes six!--stories. In 1982 that would have easily been worth your $1.25, right? It would have been doubly worth it if you loved the Legion of Super-heroes, because as the cover boasts, there are two Legion stories in every issue. The cover art is by Gil Kane and Anthony Tollin.

Aside from the two Legion stories, there are also stories focusing on the Challengers of the Unknown, Aquaman and Mera, the Marvel Family and the Spectre.
