Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane #38

A delightfully clever Silver Age puzzle cover from 1963, this Kurt Schaffenberger-illustrated issue presents a bandaged, wheelchair-bound Superman pleading his case to two women whose faces are hidden behind question marks — inviting readers to guess which one is "The Girl Who Refused to Marry Superman!" The cover's "Lady or the Tiger" framing gives the whole scene a playful, almost theatrical tension, with one mystery woman declaring her loyalty regardless of his lost powers while the other makes her feelings about a powerless Superman quite clear. It's a charming snapshot of the era's romantic storytelling, rendered with Schaffenberger's clean, expressive linework.
