COMIC BOOK COVERS THAT REFLECT THE CLASSIC COVER FOR ADVENTURE COMICS 247

In 1958, the Legion of Super-Heroes made their comic book debut within the pages of the two hundred and forty-seventh issue of 'Adventure Comics'. The issue was published by DC Comics and sports a very memorable cover illustrated by the artist, Curt Swan, which depicts three members of the team, Cosmic Boy, Lightning Boy, and Saturn Girl, all sitting behind the same desk and judging Superboy, who's standing in front of them. In fact, since its release, the aforementioned cover has become so memorable that many other artists have drawn similar comic book covers to match its visual veracity.
