Superman et Batman #9
In "Le rival de Superman," a lab mishap grants Jimmy Olsen the unexpected power of fire-breath, turning his well-meaning attempt to raise funds into a dangerous ordeal when a criminal known as "Hot Shot" Holton forces him into a string of robberies. With Superman's help just out of reach, Jimmy must find a way to reclaim control—before his new ability becomes his undoing. Otto Binder writes this classic tale, brought to life by Curt Swan’s dynamic art and Ray Burnley’s inks, while Kurt Schaffenberger’s cover captures the fiery tension of the story.
In a twist that throws Metropolis into chaos, a mysterious super-powered man declares his love for Lois Lane and demands she marry him—only for Superman to reveal the shocking truth: he’s actually Bizarro-Flash, a creation of the mischievous Bizarro No. 1, who’s determined to assemble a Bizarro Justice League. With the real League watching from the sidelines, chaos and confusion spiral as the line between hero and imposter blurs.
When an experiment gone wrong gives Jimmy Olsen the power to breathe fire, he’s thrust into an unexpected crisis after accidentally burning a charity donation. Forced to use his new ability to make amends, he becomes the target of "Hot Shot" Holton, a criminal who demands Jimmy help him rob banks. With Perry White and Prof. Potter watching from the sidelines, Jimmy must find a way to turn his fiery gift into a tool for good—before the flames get out of control.
At a gala honoring Superman and Batman’s 1000th case, Batman drops a surprising revelation: the mysterious Nightman has been quietly solving more crimes than either of them. With Jimmy Olsen and Perry White in the crowd, and Commissioner Gordon watching closely, the spotlight shifts to an enigmatic figure whose identity remains a mystery.
