“Jimmy Olsen, Nashville Super-Star”

This giant-sized 1976 DC anthology packs the whole Superman Family under one cover, with Kurt Schaffenberger's art capturing a wonderfully chaotic scene: Superman swoops in to deal with an oversized guitar while a cowboy-hatted Jimmy Olsen performs on stage, quipping "Why are they running? My singing can't be THAT bad!!" as the crowd flees in a panic. Alongside the lead "Jimmy Olsen, Nashville Super-Star" story, the cover teases three more adventures — Lois Lane apparently robbing Superman of his powers, Supergirl squaring off against a coiled Super-Serpent, and bonus stories spotlighting Jimmy Olsen's other identities and Krypto's movie stunts — making this one satisfying package for fans of the entire extended Superman cast.
