In "The Newsboy Legion!", Jimmy Olsen teams up with a group of young streetwise reporters—Gabby, Jr., Tommy, Flipper Dipper, Scrapper, Jr., and Big-Words—as they uncover secrets in the Wild Area, where the Outsiders and their enigmatic leader Yango operate. When Superman arrives, having narrowly escaped an assassination attempt orchestrated by Morgan Edge and Inter-Gang, Jimmy’s investigation takes a dangerous turn into a web of conspiracy, hidden agendas, and the strange power of the Whiz Wagon.
In "Evil Factory!", Jimmy Olsen and the Newsboy Legion find themselves in the midst of a high-stakes scientific mission at The Project, where the original Newsboy Legion are working to unlock the secrets of DNA. When a clone of Jimmy Olsen #43 infiltrates the facility with sinister intent, and the Hairies begin to stir, Superman must protect the team from a threat that’s not just in the lab—but in the very idea of identity.
When a UFO snatches Superman as Clark Kent and strands him in space, Jimmy Olsen must rally the Newsboy Legion and the mysterious Guardian—Jim Harper’s clone—to stop Morgan Edge’s latest scheme, which involves a look-alike for Don Rickles, a rogue Inter-Gang kidnapping, and a high-stakes rescue before the city’s most unlikely heroes are lost to the void.
In "Genocide Spray!", Superman and Jimmy Olsen dive into the mysterious past of Transilvane, unearthing long-buried secrets tied to Intergang and the enigmatic Count Dragorin. Meanwhile, the Newsboy Legion bears witness to the chilling conclusion of the man who killed the original Jim Harper, as shadows from the past converge in a story where truth is as dangerous as any weapon.
When Morgan Edge sends Jimmy Olsen and the Newsboy Legion to the misty highlands of Scotland to investigate a legendary creature in Loch Trevor, they’re pulled into a mystery deeper than the lake itself—while Superman and Guardian face their own challenges at the enigmatic Cosmic Carousel. With the Loch Trevor Monster stirring beneath the surface and secrets hidden in the shadows, even the bravest of boys and the mightiest of heroes might not be ready for what’s coming.
