Let me just say that Jack Kirby has a wonderful imagination from which flowed some incredible ideas; putting Don Rickles into Jimmy Olsen was not one of them. "The Guardian Fights Again" written and penciled by Jack Kirby and inked by Vince Colletta is the vehicle through which Kirby introduces Don Rickles to the DC universe. Morgan Edge is beset by Goody Rickels, a Don Rickles lookalike, who wants to break out of his research job and is assigned to investigate a UFO landing nearby.
However, Clark Kent is abducted by the UFO, and the Guardian, the Newsboy Legion, and Goody are captured by Ugly Mannheim and Inter-Gang, who force them to eat a meal laced with Pyro-Granulate. Mannheim them lets them all go, informing them that the chemical will cause them all to burn up in 24 hours.
