Superman Smoking

I recently discovered the above panel from a 1958 comic, Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #30. The man is actually a thug who is imitating Superman, but I still HAD to animate it!

I almost added a word balloon, "That sounds like your problem. I don't really give a $#%@." At least I stopped myself from doing that.

Batman first used a gun in 1939's Detective Comics #32. He also unalived several criminals with his bare hands in those early comics. Superman smoking, or an imposter, fits in with that era. I wish I had these comics. there are collectors everywhere who would value the worlds greatest characters doing things like this in a comic.
