Action Comics #436

High above a gleaming city skyline, Superman and a rocket-propelled figure streak through the sky on this Nick Cardy cover, as the Man of Steel declares "This is a job — for Perry White!" — a tantalizing tease for whatever has drawn the Daily Planet's no-nonsense editor into the action. Published in June 1974, this issue pairs that Superman lead story with a Green Arrow backup, offering solid Silver Age entertainment at a classic 20-cent cover price. With interior work by the reliable team of Elliot S! Maggin, Curt Swan, and Vince Colletta, "The Super-Cigars of Perry White!" promises the kind of imaginative, offbeat Superman storytelling that made this era so endearing.
