Hands down, the best Superman gorilla cover ever!
And finally, we have what has to be the greatest of all Superman gorilla covers...or at least the zaniest!
Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #98
I mean, c'mon...what's not to love about this one...
Jimmy as Tarzan, getting married to a female King Kong in a bridal veil, with the ceremony being performed by Superman, who just happens to be the local witch doctor. Since he's a witch doctor, he has brought with him his boiling cauldron. It's good to know they went for at least one aspect of realism with this cover!
Whatever drugs they were smoking back in 1966, I hope that a) they didn't screw up the writer and artist for life, or b) they helped you make heads or tails of this cover!
This particular issue I got in a bulk lot of Jimmy Olsen titles from one of the LCS' auctions. I think I ended up paying under $2 when everything was said and done. Always on the prowl for an upgrade of this one.
Have a great weekend everyone. Don't do anything rash that you'll regret like our impetuous friend Jimmy!
