Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #139

Jul 1971 · DC · 0.15 USD
“The Guardian Fights Again!!!”

In "The Guardian Fights Again!!!", Jack Kirby unleashes a wild, high-stakes showdown where a UFO, a Clark Kent in space, and a Don Rickles look-alike named Goody Rickles collide with an Inter-Gang kidnapping plot that pulls Jimmy Olsen, the Guardian, and the Newsboy Legion into the fray—all under Kirby’s dynamic pencils and Colletta and Anderson’s sharp inks. The cover by Kirby and Colletta captures the chaos perfectly, a 15-cent comic from 1971 bursting with the energy of a creator at the peak of his powers.
