Superman #86

A knight in medieval armor faces down an enormous green fire-breathing dragon before the rocky battlements of Camelot, while a shocked soldier nearby gasps "Forsooth! Sir Clark is really Superman!" — promising a delightful Arthurian twist on the Man of Steel's secret identity. Wayne Boring and Stan Kaye deliver a cover full of vivid menace, with the dragon's gaping jaws and billowing flames leaping right off the page. This January 1954 issue blends medieval adventure with superhero intrigue in a way that captures everything fun about the era's imaginative storytelling.
