Who is Tricksy?

Debuting in the pages of Action Comics #248 in 1959, Tricksy is a Silver Age DC creation brought to life by writer Robert Bernstein and artist Howard Sherman — a pair who knew their way around the Man of Steel's world. Over a run stretching into the mid-1960s, this character carved out a modest but memorable niche across the Superman family of titles, sharing pages with icons like Superman, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen. With 14 catalogued appearances and two recognized key issues to their name, Tricksy is exactly the kind of hidden gem that rewards the curious collector willing to dig into the rich, imaginative corners of early Silver Age DC.
