The Silver Age of comics was great for the industry financially, as superheroes had a rebirth in popularity. But it was also a very silly era, with the new Comics Code Authority restrictions. Today, we're going to look at one of the silliest Silver Age stories, an issue of The Atom by writer Gardner Fox and artist Gil Kane. It involves the shrinking superhero battling a gang with members that attack with gimmicks like stinky cheese and exploding wigs. Enjoy.
Special thanks to viewer Adam Frasher for pointing this comic out to me.
