Who is Bizarro-Jimmy Olsen?

A delightfully twisted product of DC's Silver Age imagination, Bizarro-Jimmy Olsen shambled onto the scene in 1961's Adventure Comics #290, dreamed up by the legendary Jerry Siegel and artist John Forte. Part of the wonderfully strange Bizarro corner of the DC universe, this imperfect duplicate keeps gloriously odd company — sharing panels with Bizarro himself, Bizarro-Perry White, Superman, and Clark Kent across the pages of Adventure Comics, Superman, and Action Comics. With a publishing history stretching all the way to 2007, this character is a charming emblem of Silver Age DC's boundless, gleeful creativity, and a must-know for any collector who loves the era's most inventive flights of fancy.
