World's Finest 224 - Aug 1974

Bought this for only a quid from my local comic shop just lately. Now, with one very important exception (which i'll get to in due course), i never read this title as a nipper. So i thought i'd have a gander at what was what 38 years ago. We've got five tales here - a Johnny Quick, a Metamorpho, two pretty old Supes & Bats tales and the most up to date - "The Shocking Switch Of The Super-Sons!" A VERY naff tale of Clark JR and Bruce JR failing to get along with their Dad's, so decide to stay at an "Encounter Camp" with them to heal the riff. Along the way we get psuedo-hippy teachings, a mystery involving a missing robot - who turns out to be camping there too, bizarro set-pieces such as Superman and Batman jigging with their boys:
very dated, early 70's dialogue:
And a Scooby Doo resolution and wrapping up to the tale:
As i say, naff. Bat-Rating - 2/10
