☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Superman in Kandor, Part 1: Invasion of the Mystery Super-Men!", Jimmy Olsen finds himself whisked away to the mysterious world of Gion-El, where he encounters eerie duplicates of himself—each a past transformation brought to life. Written by Jerry Siegel and illustrated with timeless precision by Curt Swan, with inks by George Klein, this 1971 adventure sees Jimmy outwitted by a clever ruse, only to be revealed as the true test of his worth by the Legionnaires, who then welcome him into the 30th century as an honorary member. The cover, by Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson, captures the moment with classic flair.
In "Superman in Kandor: Part II: The Dynamic Duo of Kandor!", Superman and Jimmy Olsen don masks as Nightwing and Flamebird to infiltrate a shadowy plot led by the rogue Kandorian Than Ol. With help from the brilliant Nor Kann and the mysterious Van-Zee, they race to thwart a dangerous scheme that could unravel the very fate of Kandor—before the city's fate is sealed by the forces of Jax-Ur, Prof. Vakox, and the Phantom Zone inmates.
In a whimsical twist, Superman and Jimmy Olsen find themselves transformed into the legendary Nightwing and Flamebird in the Bottle City of Kandor, where they must confront the super-powered Super-Outlaw, who’s stealing ancient relics from the city’s vaults. With the help of the enigmatic Nor-Kann and the psychic Telepathic Hound, they race to stop the thief before Kandor’s history is lost—though the origins of the city’s forgotten heroes may hold more secrets than anyone expected.
In "The World of Doomed Olsens!", Jimmy Olsen finds himself whisked to the bizarre world of Gion-El, where he encounters twisted versions of himself—each a past transformation brought to life. As the illusions unravel, Mon-El, Colossal Boy, and the rest of the Legion of Super-Heroes reveal that the trial was never about danger, but about proving Jimmy’s worth, leading to his long-awaited induction as an honorary Legionnaire in the 30th century.
