Jimmy Olsen's Bad Habit


Here, from SUPERMAN'S PAL, JIMMY OLSEN # 101, is Jimmy Olsen casually smoking a pipe and blowing smoke rings as if he does it all the time (off-panel, of course). Worse yet, here he's time-traveled to Krypton where he's actually introducing the concept of smoking to the natives! Great Rao! He could KILL these people...oh. Never mind. Smoke 'em if ya got 'em, I guess.

  1. Yikes! Not only does Superman's Pal smoke, but apparantly he carries his pipe and tobacco with him where ever he goes - even across time and space! Just another illustration of the wonderful wackiness that was DC Comics in the Silver Age.
