"Joe Smith, Man of Steel" sees a mysterious man named Joe Smith gain superpowers from a meteor's radiation, drawing the attention of a shrewd promoter eager to profit from his abilities. Written and illustrated by Ramona Fradon, this 1957 Adventure Comics tale blends sci-fi wonder with the kind of quirky, character-driven drama that defined the era, all framed by Curt Swan’s classic cover art with Stan Kaye’s inks.
