1976 DC Comic Superman #305 The Toyman is Back in Excellent condition, minor wear see photos. In DC Comics' Superman #305 (released in November 1976), titled "The Toyman is Back!", writer Gerry Conway and artist Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez reintroduce Winslow Schott, the classic Toyman, with a lethal overhaul. After learning that a rival toy manufacturer named Jack Nimball had stolen his gimmick while Schott was retired, Schott re-emerges with a far darker, more vengeful edge to reclaim his criminal legacy. He constructs a giant, deadly wind-up toy designed to wreak havoc on Metropolis and eliminate both Nimball and Superman, demonstrating that his whimsical creations are far more dangerous than simple playthings. The issue stands out in the Bronze Age for re-establishing Schott's position as a genuinely sinister force in Superman's rogues' gallery, setting a template for the villain's darker portrayals in subsequent decades.
