More than 170 never-before-reprinted Superman Sundays from the 1950s. This second book (of three) features every Superman weekly strip from March 22, 1953 through June 24, 1956.

Their defender of the oppressed became an enduring smash sensation in comics, radio, animation, television, and motion pictures. He remains the little guy's White Knight, battling terrestrial and extra-terrestrial menaces and standing for Truth, Justice, and the American Way.… (more)
