☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Legend of Greenbeard Olsen," Jimmy Olsen dons an alien-powered suit gifted by Superman, complete with flight jets and invulnerability, transforming into the hero Wonder Lad. Written by Otto Binder and illustrated by Curt Swan with inks by Ray Burnley, this 1957 classic features a delightfully whimsical take on superhero origins, all wrapped in a cover by Swan and Burnley that captures Jimmy’s new, jet-fueled persona with playful flair.
When Superman gifts Jimmy Olsen an invulnerable alien suit with jet propulsion, the young reporter steps into the spotlight as the new hero Wonder Lad—testing his powers and his courage alongside his friend Tommy Todd in a story of heroism, humor, and the unexpected weight of a cape.
