Superman: The Silver Age Dailies: 1961-1963, Volume 2
The second volume of Silver Age daily newspaper strips presents the never-before reprinted stories from August 1961 through November 1963. Wayne Boring and Stan Kaye provide the artwork, and once again, Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel scripts adaptations of stories that first appeared in comic books. Siegel and Boring offer alternate versions of now classic stories originally written by Siegel himself, Batman co-creator Bill Finger, Edmund Hamilton, and Leo Dorfman -- and drawn in comic books by Curt Swan, Al Plastino, Kurt Schaffenberger, and Boring himself. Stories include "The Feud Between Superman and Clark Kent," "The Day Superman Broke the Law," "The Reporter of Steel," "Lois Lane's Revenge on Superman," "The Invisible Lois Lane," and "The Man Who Betrayed Superman's Identity," among others. More than 750 daily strips -- over two two years worth of stories -- from Earth-N (for Newspapers) that comic book fans have not previously seen. Edited and designed by Dean Mullaney, Introduction by Sid Friedfertig, and cover drawing by Pete Poplaski.

About the Author
Jerry Siegel (1914-1996) is best known as the co-creator of the world's longest published superhero, Superman, with Joe Shuster. He scripted the characrter on and off until 1967, and also worked on numerous other comic series. Wayne Boring was born in Minnesota in 1905 and studied art in his hometown, as well as the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He became one of Joe Shuster's early assistants in the late 1930s and eventually assumed the full drawing duties. His rendition of Superman became the most recognizable version during the 1950s and '60s.
