Superman In The Fifties TPB (Jul058232)
"Written by Otto Binder, Jerry Coleman, Bill Finger, Edmond Hamilton, and others; Art by Al Plastino, Wayne Boring, Curt Swan, Kurt Schaffenberger, and others Written in the 1950s, the stories reprinted in this collection reflect the optimism and carefree excitement of that era. In a decade of few real life villains, Superman's adventures became more lighthearted and fun as he teamed up with Robin, the Boy Wonder or battled against such outrageous foes as Bizarro and the Bride of Bizarro. Also included in this collection are the first appearances of Supergirl, Krypto, and Titano the Super-Ape as well as tales of Superman's Super-Magic Show and Superboy's last day in Smallville."
