Welcome back to a new RETRO REVIEW! And this week, I am looking at Doom Patrol # 100, cover dated December 1965 from DC Comics. The comic sports a cover both pencilled and inked by Bob Brown and features Elasti-Girl battling a dinosaur! I don’t know what it was about DC back in the Silver Age,…
Okay, time for a new RETRO REVIEW, so I’ve dug out my copy of Plastic Man # 2, published by D C Comics, though they were known as National Comics back in the day, when this comic was published. Oh yeah, for the record, the issue is cover dated; February 1967, but it would have…

This week’s RETRO REVIEW looks at DC Comics’ Doom Patrol # 104, cover dated June 1966. It features a rare wedding in a comic book, between two comic book characters.
