Joe Shuster cvr/art; Bernard Baily art; Superman battle cover; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)
This shining example of Action's early run is also a classic collection of the Golden Age’s greatest talents. The sensational Superman art is courtesy of Joe Shuster, of course, as Jerry Siegel scripts the story marking the second anniversary of the Man of Steel. The book goes on to feature work from a stellar cast of other beloved Golden Age artists of the era, including Fred Guardineer, Sheldon Moldoff, and Bernard Baily!
