PROGRAMMING NOTE: Your Captain is taking a brief leave of absence for the holidays! Posting will be sporadic (or perhaps nonexistent) until after the New Year. My sincere thanks to all my followers -- I really appreciate it (especially the comments!). I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season. I'll see you in 2026 when we'll continue on with the House of Mystery cover pageant!

HOUSE OF MYSTERY #46, January 1956 Interesting note: The Bottle City of Kandor wasn't introduced as part of Superman lore until 1958 (in Action Comics #242). Wonder if this story had any influence...
