☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Two Jimmy Olsens," Jimmy Olsen finds himself in a uniquely tricky situation when Dr. Saxon gifts him a lifelike robot duplicate—perfectly mirroring his appearance and ready to take on his duties. With a double on the job, Jimmy hopes to stay out of harm’s way while the robot handles the dangers of being a reporter, but the real question is: how long can the ruse last? Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Curt Swan, with inks by Ray Burnley, this 1957 adventure features a cover by Curt Swan and Stan Kaye.
In a twist of science and suspense, Jimmy Olsen finds himself playing both sides of the law when Dr. Saxon gifts him a robot duplicate who looks exactly like him—sending the real Jimmy into hiding while his mechanical double takes on the dangers of being a reporter. With Lois Lane and Superman watching from the sidelines, the real Jimmy must stay one step ahead of a criminal who’s after him, while the robot version of Jimmy Olsen steps into the spotlight, risking everything in his place.
