An instant hit from his first appearance, Superman's popularity has grown through the decades - and today he is known worldwide as the defender of Truth, Justice and the American Way. But his earliest stories reveal a Superman who took no prisoners, made his own laws and gleefully delivered his own brand of justice - even if it meant dangling a crook by the ankle from above the city, or giving a wife-beater a taste of his own medicine. This was a Superman who embodied pure wish fulfillment, with his early adventures showing a raw super-hero in the making - and the development of an enduring classic! DC Comics is proud to present this definitive and affordable collection of Superman's first stories.
