Mar 1967
Trial by Terror
by Arnold Drake, Bruno Premiani
The Chief's analysis of the Brotherhood of Evil's actions in the previous issue reveals that Madame Rouge is in love with Negative Man. In their next fight with the Brotherhood, which takes place at the 1964 New York World's Fairgrounds, Negative Man floats the idea and gets slapped by Madame Rouge. Clearly the Chief made a mistake. What isn't clear is how Larry Trainor can get a black eye but that's the result of Madame Rouge's slap to his face.
Mandred escapes from the basement where the Doom Patrol imprisoned him last issue. They fight him once again. In the end he flies away.
The Galtry story comes to a happy conclusion as the Doom Patrol thwarts Galtry's latest attempt to gain custody of Gar in court. Rita and Steve adopt Gar.
A decent story with some fun moments. My favorites are the ones that involve the verbal sparring of Robotman and Negative Man. This isn't the end of the Brotherhood of Evil but I think that's it for this ongoing story.
