☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis hardcover volume collects Superman stories from the Golden Age, reprinting issues #13-17 of the original Superman series from 1941-1942. It features classic tales by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, including early adventures of the Man of Steel battling Lex Luthor and other foes, as part of DC's Archive Editions line preserving vintage comic material.
In "The Phony Pacifists," Superman confronts a radical anti-militarism group whose seemingly noble cause hides a dangerous secret: their leader is secretly working for a hostile totalitarian regime. Written by Jerry Siegel and illustrated by Paul Cassidy, with inks by Wayne Boring and the Shuster Shop, this story from The Superman Archives #3 (1991) explores the fine line between idealism and subversion. The cover, by Fred Ray, captures the tension of a world where peace may be the enemy’s greatest weapon.
