“Benjamin Franklin's Super-Reporter”

In "Benjamin Franklin's Super-Reporter," the Kent family finds themselves unexpectedly transported to colonial America after encountering a 1773 newspaper—just as Benjamin Franklin himself steps into the spotlight. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Al Plastino, this adventure blends historical intrigue with a touch of the extraordinary, all rendered with the classic charm of the era. The cover, by Curt Swan and George Klein, captures the moment with a striking, period-accurate flair.
