Sometimes, when I'm at my local shop, I go through the 50 cent bin to see if anything strikes me. Today I found this... It's a goddamn work of art. Silver Age DC is the ONLY DC for me.

It does raise a good point - does Superman get enough nourishment from the sun, and if not, what the hell does he have to eat to keep up with what one could only imagine would be an insatiable metabolism? "I just burned about six quintillion calories, let's hit the drive-thru."

He has super-efficiency. He can live on a cracker for a couple of days if he doesn't use his powers extensively.

 Kryptonians can convert solar energy to nourishment, and due to evolving under the light of a dying red star, require very small amounts to survive. In fact, all of Superman's powers come from excess energy he stores up from Earth's vibrant yellow sun! He would not get hungry until every last one of his super-powers had turned off. ...I know a lot about Superman okay

A super-alloy forms in the core of the Earth and starts draining solar energy from everything because that's how metal works. Superman defeats it by putting a towel around it.

I feel like nothing that goes on inside the issue itself can compare to the cover. The bar has been set so high, I'm afraid of ruining it for myself.

My favourite Superdickery cover: Neal Adams drew this cover; have you ever seen a more dickish smirk on a Superman? I think what sells it is how Superman victimising Jimmy is kinda standard practice for these things, but here he's also tormenting Aquaman, and in a way that's hilariously specific to him.

Sefer posted:I'm pretty sure there was a pilot for a Justice League show in the 90s that had Flash eating a ton. As a man who has read then entire Flash V2, both are right. At first he has to eat all the time and can only hit like, mach 2 or 3, but eventually he unlocks the Speed Force and doesn't have to anymore and can go to near-light speed.

I picked this up out of the ripped/missing covers bin a while back. Luckily, my girlfriend at the time was a conservator/restoration librarian whatever and patched it up real nice. My copy is cooler than your copy because it has marks from where someone traced Superman eating cheeseburgers at one point, though. e: I also have this guy and a few other silly covers that I need to get around to framing

That makes Spider-Man look like a villain who has kidnapped those children to hack into a computer or something. Edit: I'm on a phone and that cigarette case looked like a computer at first, now it looks like he's forcing those kids to sell contraband to other kids.

I had the second one long, long ago, and as I recall it was about Chameleon getting kids hooked on pills that looked like Substance D. Or was that a different "say no to drugs" comic starring Spider-Man?
