“The Man with the Triple X-Ray Eyes”

In "The Man with the Triple X-Ray Eyes," Otto Binder and Jim Mooney deliver a classic Superman tale from 1957, where a mysterious woman’s application to join the Planeteers sets off a series of extraordinary tests. With Wayne Boring’s iconic cover and Stan Kaye’s crisp inks, this issue offers a standout moment in the early Superman mythos—full of wonder and suspense, with no hints of how it all unfolds.
