“Here Be Tygers”

In "Here Be Tygers," Jerry Siegel's script and Joe Shuster's art bring a surreal twist to the Superman mythos, as Miss Dreamface's hypnotic influence over the Man of Steel unravels in unexpected ways. When Ted breaks free through laughter, the ripple effect destabilizes her hold on both Superman and the mischievous Mr. Mxyzptlk, setting off a chain of events that turns the tables in a moment of absurd tension. John M. Burns' cover captures the story's eerie, playful menace with a striking, moody image that perfectly frames the issue’s unsettling tone.
