The Brave and the Bold #28 (Mar. 1960)

Dear Editor,

First, thanks for making the 1992 reprint of The Brave and the Bold #28. If you hadn't I'm not sure I would have been able to read this story.

I enjoyed the story. I must say that it feels very campy now. Was it originally written that way? I mean look at the character of the hipster Snapper. I have a hard time believing anybody actually talked that, with all those "ville"-s: "Antsville," "Tranceville," and "Speedsville." Isn't it a bit much?

Also, I would have liked to see more of what the world would have been like if Starro had taken over. It would have been neat to see how the League handled a world of mind controlled people.

That brings me to the best part of this story—Justice League of America. This is a fantastic team up. I love how there wasn't an origin story. It was just there. I want to read more!

Thanks,
Jeff King
