Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #34
In "Superman's Pal of Steel!", Jimmy Olsen takes a surprising turn when he inherits a tiny newspaper called The Clarion and decides to leave the Daily Planet—much to the shock of Perry, Lois, and Clark. Suddenly, the paper starts running sensational exposés aimed at undermining Superman’s reputation, leaving everyone scrambling to understand where this new crusade came from. Written by Al Schwartz and brought to life with Curt Swan’s crisp art and Ray Burnley’s sharp inks, the cover by Swan and Stan Kaye captures the moment of quiet tension before the storm.
