Funnyman

Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the legendary co-creators of Superman, reunited at Magazine Enterprises for this short-lived but historically fascinating 1948 series. Funnyman is a lighthearted crimefighter who uses comedy and elaborate practical jokes instead of brute force, supported by a cast including his girlfriend June Farrell and the slippery Slippery Slim. Though it ran only six issues, the series stands as a unique post-war experiment by two of comics' most influential figures, offering a playful counterpoint to the grim superheroes of the era.
