Comments – A page was deleted from this story because DC cut the number of pages in their books at the last minute. The page was eventually printed in The Amazing World of DC Comics #9 (11/1975), a company-produced fanzine. On this page, Matter-Eater Lad expresses self-doubt after being manhandled by Calorie Queen in their first scuffle. Karate Kid gives him a little tough-love pep talk.
