Manic Monday--You Kids Are Too Young To Get The Joke

Boss Annova, head of the Metropolis underworld, is cheesed off that Plastic Man is busting all of then street level criminals. So he decides to take a radical step:

From Plastic Man #15 (1976)

Blame it on the Boss Annova, the dance of love.

You also have to love a crime boss who throws discretion to the wind and identifies himself to the secretary taking his call as the kingpin of all street crime in Metropolis.

In fairness, it was a Plastic Man story, so "discretion to the wind" was probably the least of its sins against realism...
