The issue also includes an extra Supergirl adventure set in Atlantis, adding even more collector appeal. Notably, it features appearances by Mon-El and Krypto the Superdog, with an atomic explosion panel inside the story content. Artwork is by Curt Swan and Jim Mooney, with a cover by Curt Swan and Stan Kaye, and stories by Robert Bernstein and Jerry Siegel (Superman’s co-creator). Graded CGC 7.0 Fine/Very Fine, this book presents with Off-White pages and strong color retention. A desirable mid-high grade Silver Age Superman issue that combines key supporting characters and iconic early-1960s storytelling.
