“The Flying Jimmy Olsen!”

Swinging high above a packed circus tent, Jimmy Olsen — dressed in a green acrobat's costume — soars alongside a female trapeze artist while confidently shouting down to a concerned Superman below: "Don't spoil my act, Superman! I'll handle this situation!" Curt Swan's cover pencils capture that irresistible 1954 charm of Jimmy stepping boldly out of his pal's shadow and into the spotlight, nets and rigging all around lending genuine tension to the scene. Whether you're drawn by Otto Binder's storytelling or simply the sheer delight of seeing a cub reporter turned daring aerialist, this issue promises the kind of warm, offbeat adventure that made Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen such a beloved corner of the DC universe.
