Ramona Fradon - House of Mystery #232, 1975
Ramona Fradon had an extraordinarily long career in comics, starting in the industry in the early 1950s, and then staying active until "officially retiring" one month before her death, age 97, in February 2024. She is especially known for her work on Aquaman, Metamorpho (which she co-created with Bob Haney), and Super Friends. She had a long stretch doing DC's "mystery" books during the 1970s.
