We begin with Lois Lane in "The Dark Side of the Justice League" by Robert Kanigher, Werner Roth, Vince Colletta, and Murphy Anderson. Darkseid's minions Simyan and Mokkari derive a potion to drive Superman mad. They have miniature clones of the Justice League apply it to Lois's lips while she's on vacation. When she kisses Superman, the potion takes effect and the mini JLA attacks her. To her defense, the Project creates 8 mini Lois Lanes, each uniquely powered to destroy the JLA clones. They also provide her with a lipstick antidote for Superman's madness and one kiss is all it takes for Superman to come out of the spell.
Now comes the real artistic treat of this issue, the Rose and the thorn in "Law of the 100" by Robert Kanigher and Gray Morrow. The 100 sends the son of one of their top assassins to kill the Thorn, but he becomes her ally--and the 100's target--when he learns they set his father up for the police. I was hoping Morrow would become the regular artist for this strip, but, unfortunately, this was a one-and-done situation.
