Superman Archives Hardcover Volume 05 (Star10734)

"by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster A stunning hardcover volume collects the classic Golden Age Superman stories from Superman (first series) #17-20. Many of these stories never have been reprinted since their original publication in 1942-43, but their influence is visible in today's Superman animated series on the Kids' WB! and in its inspiration, the 1940s Fleischer Superman cartoons. One unforgettable tale (referred to on its first page as 'our very first imaginary story') in this volume finds Clark Kent and Lois Lane going to a movie where a Fleischer cartoon is playing and Clark has to keep distracting Lois so she doesn't learn his secret identity from the animated film.
