Superman: The Golden Age Sundays #[2]
"Superman, Maid" delivers a delightfully absurd twist on the Man of Steel’s early adventures, with Bill Finger crafting a tale where Superman’s fame draws both circus hucksters and mobsters to his doorstep. When confidence men Flim and Flam convince Cap'n Tobey to pay $5,000 for a Superman performance, the hero shows up—only to become the target of a deadly competition among gangsters eager to claim leadership by eliminating him. The story’s charm lies in its playful tone and the art of Pete Poplaski, whose dynamic cover captures the circus chaos with flair.
