As Silver Age adventures go, its remarkably realistic, with a super-duper whose powers don't overwhelm the story, and that tries to deal with the then-ominous threat of Communist infiltration. As for the art, both Kane and Fujitani put together an impressive issue, with their art being pretty ill-served by some ham-fisted coloring (as well as the less-than-stellar newsprint of my original copy of this ish.)
