Following the Allies’ victory in World War II, America was on the move again by the end of 1945. With the return of millions of servicemen from Europe and the Pacific and the lifting of wartime rationing, new suburban housing began springing up across the country, and the great postwar baby boom was soon underway. On the newsstands, the adventures of Superman reflected the nation’s changing priorities. While he certainly didn’t abandon his championship of the common man (not to mention his never-ending battle for truth and justice), the world’s greatest superhero took a noticeably comedic turn in the final years of comics’ Golden Age.

Now, this pivotal period in the Man of Steel’s celebrated career—featuring such stories as “The Average American,” “Battle of the Redwoods” and “The Laughing Stock of Metropolis” and co-starring such legendary luminaries as Lois Lane, Mr. Mxyztplk, the Prankster and Lex Luthor—is finally available for the first time in a single hardcover edition.

By the mid-1960s, the ongoing adventures of the Legion of Super-Heroes had reached near cult status in the growing realm of comic book fandom and some of the most memorable stories in the Legion chronicles were being told.

In this second omnibus volume of The Legion Of Super-Heroes: The Silver Age, return to the 30th Century, a time when teenagers were heroes and the universe was under their protection, with the landmark stories that changed the lives, mythos and roster of the Legion forever.

The Silver Age of comics had begun, and the concept of costumed super-heroes was once again gaining mass appeal. As demand for the colorful heroes grew in the late 1950s, DC Comics reacted by revamping many of their greatest heroes from the Golden Age -- heroes like the Flash, Green Lantern, and the JLA. But they also expanded their current super-hero franchises, with one of the most important being the Superman titles, headed by editor Mort Weisinger.
The Man of Steel was already featured in several DC titles -- Superman, Action Comics, World's Finest (teamed with Batman), and Adventure Comics (featuring his adolescent, exploits as Superboy). Under Weisinger, however, the Superman mythos underwent a sustained expansion, with the introduction of the Phantom Zone, multicolored versions of Kryptonite, and Krypto the superdog (as well as the rest of the super-pets). But Weisinger's most notable contribution to the "Superman Family" was the introduction of Superman's long-lost cousin, Kara Zor-El -- Supergirl!

Supergirl exploded into Superman's life in Action Comics #252. Although not the first time Superman had encountered a "Supergirl" -- see the first adventure in this volume from Superman #123 -- the introduction of Kara would become an important milestone in the Man of Steel's mythology.

Escaping from the doomed city of Argo, Krypton's last surviving remnant, Kara is sent to Earth in a rocket to be reunited with Superman, and under his guidance is trained to become one of Earth's greatest heroes. Supergirl's early adventures, charmingly crafted by writer Otto Binder, had Supergirl's actions always hidden from society, giving her the status of "Superman's Secret Weapon." But inevitably Supergirl became a public figure, even breaking the bonds of the 20th century to fight alongside the Legion of Super-Heroes.

In later years, with the coming of the universealtering series Crisis on Infinite Earths, Kara met a hero's fate, dying while saving her last family member, Superman. Supergirl's death was a most emotional event for professionals and fans alike. But let's not talk about the end. This is the beginning. So let us return to a simpler time, as a 15-year-old girl learns to fly, and learns to be a hero.

A beautiful collection of classic tales, SUPERGIRL ARCHIVES VOL. 2 reprints the Maid of Steel's earliest adventures as they were originally published in the 1960s. With Argo City, the last surviving metropolis of Krypton, on the verge of destruction, Kara Zora-El was jettisoned to Earth. Reuniting with her cousin Superman, Kara quickly became the Man of Steel's secret weapon and began her own spectacular life of adventure. An amazing assortment of stories, this hardcover edition features Supergirl's public introduction to the world, her sixteenth birthday celebration, her official adoption by Fred and Edna Danvers, and her induction into the Legion of Super-Heroes.

In these early tales, the Man of Tomorrows powers were still developing and his foes were often thieves and crooked politicians.
