“Christmas in Suicide Slumberland”

In "Christmas in Suicide Slumberland," Jerry Ordway and Tom Grummett deliver a heartfelt holiday tale where Jimmy Olsen and Bibbo navigate the festive season with a mission: bringing joy to children at the Children's Aid Society. With Ordway’s heartfelt storytelling and Grummett’s expressive art—brought to life by Doug Hazlewood’s inks and Glenn Whitmore’s warm colors—this 1992 issue captures a quiet moment of connection, as Jimmy finds renewed hope and belonging in the company of friends and family. The cover, penciled and inked by Ordway, perfectly captures the story’s tender spirit.
