Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Boy of 100 Faces!", Jimmy Olsen takes on a mystery at the Meredith Lumber Camp when Perry White sends him to uncover the source of a strange jinx disrupting paper deliveries to the Daily Planet. Written by Otto Binder and brought to life with crisp, expressive art by Curt Swan—inked by Ray Burnley and lettered by Pat Gordon—this 1954 classic blends small-town intrigue with the kind of whimsical suspense that defined early Superman-era comics. The cover, penciled by Swan and inked by Stan Kaye, captures Jimmy’s determined look as he steps into the unknown.
When Jimmy Olsen is dispatched to the Meredith Lumber Camp by Perry White to uncover the source of a mysterious jinx disrupting paper deliveries to the Daily Planet, he finds himself tangled in a forest of strange coincidences—just as Superman, posing as Clark Kent, arrives on the scene with a few questions of his own. With Paul Meredith overseeing operations and Otis Burton muttering about bad luck, Jimmy’s investigation takes a turn no one saw coming.
