The Amazing Jimmy Olsen Superman's pal Jimmy Olsen was always an over eager cub reporter in the SUPERMAN comics and his own comic book. In his zeal , he would try to over achieve. Most of these tries would end in small diasters for his pal Superman.
These reprints of the 1950's thru 1980's Jimmy Olsen comics are a great overview and showcase of JImmy the adventerous one. In this collection of short comic stories, He becomes a great brain, a wolfman, a bizarro Jimmy(a negetive monstrous creature), A great alien from Jupiter, a 50 foot man (shades of the 50 foot woman of the B rated Movies), a quilled freak, a turtle man, an Elongated rubber man and even a superhero in Superman's bottle of Kandor
These comics are reprined in color with a brighter than average newspaper comic stock. The stories are cute and reflect an era gone by. I give it 4 stars because they could have given this collection a higher quality paper. I dont mean a slick paper stock like some books are today , just a better bond paper
For the collectors of Superman, this collection has been a long time coming. For others, it is a neat trip to an era gone by and well worth your time
And as Perry White would say "DON'T Call me CHIEF"
