Manic Monday Bonus--Little Shop Of Keystone Horrors!

Normally, I would never, ever question the science in a comic book...

...but I've gotta call shenanigans on that malarkey.

Then again...

...if they print it, it must be true!!

Botanist Phineas Burton receives a mysterious package...


No harm? As if!

Wait...thought balloons for a plant?!?

No, this is all of your nightmares come true!




So begins a wave of plant-based crime across Keystone City:


Apparently, no one had any weed-killer available.

But our overgrown flower is not content:


The secret origin of driverless cars.

Plus, more crime!
Anyway, Flash makes quick work of the plant, and everyone is saved.

See, everyone, we don't need Poison Ivy to do a "plants out of control" story. Cut out the middleman, and bring back Maldita Toxicohedron!!

From Comic Cavalcade #5 (1943)
