Description

Just imagine - in 1960, Martin Goodman decides that comics have no future and closes Marvel down, forcing Lee and Kirby to seek work at National.

And what if, after a couple of years producing back-up science fiction, war and monster stories for DC's anthologies, editor Murray Boltinoff (unsatisfied with the initial submission from Arnold Drake and Bruno Premiani) asks Stan and Jack to see if they can do anything with the idea of the Doom Patrol?

I think it might have looked something like this...and I have a few more "Stan and Jack do the Doom Patrol" ideas in mind for the future!

(Yes, purists might claim that Elasti-Girl didn't have the traditional "stretching" powers, and Larry Trainor's negative self couldn't talk, but I'm going to pass over that for the sake of what I think is a great cover).

Superb work as always from Stephen Baskerville - highly recommended!
