“The Girl with the Heart of Steel”

In "The Girl with the Heart of Steel," Jimmy Olsen returns to his Elastic Lad form and ventures into the Phantom Zone, where he stumbles upon a mystery that could unravel Superman’s greatest secret—though how much he learns, and what it means, remains to be seen. Written by Leo Dorfman and brought to life with Curt Swan’s signature art and George Klein’s inks, this 1976 classic features a cover by Kurt Schaffenberger that captures the intrigue in bold, classic style.
