Superman, Batman and Robin make time travel seem as difficult, and as interesting, as a trip to the corner 7-11 for milk.

Story as mediocre as I remembered from 50 years ago, but I like Howard Purcell's art more than I did when I was 10.

In 1964, in Avengers 10, there is a villain named Immortus who is essentially a villainous version of Kid Eternity.  In 1963, the Doom Patrol faced General Immortus, who in addition to a military title, had a black heart, gold braid, and no teeth and no powers.  Needed Botox, which at that time had not been invented.  My favorite Doom Patrol bad guy.  

As always, the Time Capsule is a great excuse to go back and re-read the treasured stories of my youth. Even when they don't hold up as well as I recall, it is worth the journey.
