Given that I was not quite 3 years old when it came out...

Did you buy this one directly off the newsstand?

You can take that as a yes, @L'Angelo Misterioso. @fifties was one of those precocious kids. He learned to talk before he was even born. As soon as his head popped out, he was like, "Hurry up, Ma! Push! I ain't got all day!" (His grammar wasn't quite perfect until he was three or four days old.)

At two years old, he was already sick of superhero and funny animal books and moved on to horror and GGA.

What a beautiful copy of such a wonderful book! The colors are just so vibrant. One of my favorite short run GA titles. 

This cover reminds me pf several "weird machine" covers. Here is another one.

You know it’s interesting to me that not the GGA, but what caught my attention with the Captain Flight Comics issue was the left hooded figure. Of all the ways his action could be portrayed, his body is like uniquely contorted. I feel like the artist portrayed that hooded evil figure beautifully as he is like rushing to turn on the death machine before Red Rocket presumably saves the day. That twisted body feel almost makes him feel even more evil to me. And he’s in such a rush his arm flails outside of the hood. Love the detail, love the art!

The lady's face sure looks like a Matt Baker face. Is this an Iger Shop book?
