... an would use his super-speed to avoid the weapon's blasts. Once again we have Superman creating news for the benefit of one particular organization, in this case Ace Newsreels. As mentioned in my review of "The Superman Spectaculars" from _Superman_ #278 (KC #55), I have real problems with the ethics of this. Regardless that this was a scam, Superman did not know this at the time he accepted the offers. By the way, "Ace Newsreels" seems a little outdated, even for 1961. With the gaining prevalence ...

... Superboy has been there before him and set a clever trap. Thus ends the threat of Rebello. Even when Superboy grew up to be Superman, his robots still seemed to think they knew more than he did. Take "The Reversed Super Powers" from _Action Comics_ #274 (March 1961), by Jerry Coleman and Kurt Schaffenberger, for example. Perry White hands Lois the assignment of covering Superman's possible discovery of a cure for Kryptonite. Superman folds her up in his cape and whisks her off to his Fortress of S ...

This is the type of story in which David really shines, and which is such a relief after the silly free-for-all of issues #27 and 28. Very simply and eloquently, David definitively explains the character in a way that is keeping with the 'Earth Angel' angle while not violating a thing that went before. And even more interesting is the fact that David does not wave the doub ...
