Jimmy Olsen's Supercyclopedia!
Today the fine folks at DC announced Jimmy Olsen's Supercyclopedia will be out April Fools' Day 2025. It's by Gabe Soria and me- I met Gabe in 2019 (the very weekend he pitched the idea to what was then DC Ink!'s Michele Wells) at a con in New Orleans. Gabe's a NOLA resident, a fellow Batman '66 veteran, and works at one of the greatest record stores I've ever shopped at. He'd been nurturing the idea for years, and I happened to be in the right place at the right time to eventually draw it. Jimmy was greenlit, and our old '66 editor Jim Chadwick tapped me to draw it. I had other stuff to clear out of the way, and last spring we finally got started- after Jim had passed the book to Kristy Quinn, my editor on Bombshells United and Teen Titans Go! Kristy's the best, Jim's retired and living abroad, everyone's happy :) Jimmy Olsen's Supercyclopedia finds Jimmy making a dumb mistake, and rather than getting his pal Superman to fix things ...
Vigilante: CRIME'S CARAVAN, from Action Comics 48, May 1942
Haven't posted a Vig story in what, 5 years? I reckon it's time. Here's another by Morts Weisinger and Meskin, at last! I'll try to do this more regularly in the future. And hey DC, I've got 50+ Meskin Vigilantes, I'd be delighted to share scans if you ever want to reprint this stuff. (Lol "stuff", what I did there) ©DC Entertainment
