“Superman's Phantom Pal!”

In "Superman's Phantom Pal!", Jimmy Olsen takes a sick day—literally—sending his robot double to cover his duties at the Daily Planet. With Curt Swan’s smooth art and George Klein’s crisp inks bringing the action to life, the story follows the robot’s increasingly bizarre run of bad luck, all while Jimmy recovers at home. The cover by Swan and Moldoff captures the eerie charm of the mechanical stand-in, setting up a tale where even the most reliable tech can’t escape the unexpected.
