Riassunto
The Man of Steel's newspaper comic strips are among the rarest of all Superman collectibles. This comprehensive series helps remedy that gap in the Superman legacy by bringing back into print every one of the daily newspaper strips.
The creative torch is passed to writer Alvin Schwartz when Superman's creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster leave the series in a dispute with DC Comics. Schwartz and artist Wayne Boring present sixteen storylines that begin while World War II is still raging and continues into the post-war era. Stories include "The Prankster's Peculiar Premonitions," "Lois Lane, Editor," and "Superman's Secret Revealed!"
