Villains Brainiac, Marauder, Grax (four arms), and Lex Luthor appear with Lois Lane, Batman and Jimmy Olson on one of my favorite Nick Cardy covers. I missed bidding on this on eBay back in 2006. A few years later this piece appeared on the ComicLink Exchange. I really wanted the piece as it had perfect cover alignment but I was focused on other books. I kept putting off the purchase then one day the book was no longer listed. Come January of 2013 I got a rare third chance and I did not hesitate.
