Superman’s Girl Friend, Lois Lane #21 (Nov. 1960, DC) — FN 6.0
Lois vs. Lana: The Silver Age Super-Catfight Issue
The gloves are off and the capes are on — both Lois Lane and Lana Lang get full-on permanent super-powers and immediately do what any rational, level-headed adults would do: blast into the sky and beat the living kryptonite out of each other over who gets to marry Superman. Peak Silver Age insanity, drawn with clean, candy-bright charm by Kurt Schaffenberger at the height of his powers.
Issued in late 1960, this is the first time both rivals go super at the same time — a fan-favorite “Battle of the Super-Girlfriends” story that got reprinted for decades because it’s just that gloriously unhinged. Kryptonian romance drama, bottle-city cameos, and a very stressed Clark Kent stuck in the middle.
“Dolls of Doom!” – Lois dolls loaded with explosives & a Fortress of Solitude break-in attempt
Public Service PSA – Don’t drop out of school, kids, or you’ll never fly like Lois
“Trapped in Kandor” – Shrunk city, borrowed identity, low-oxygen romance panic
“The Battle Between Super-Lois and Super-Lana!” – 9 pages of pure Silver Age chaos
All written with Mort Weisinger’s trademark “what if Superman lived in a sitcom” energy.
FN (6.0) — Clean, solid mid-grade with good color pop and tight staples. Light spine stress, soft corner blunting, and a small chip at lower right edge. Mild tanning on interior edges but pages remain flexible and readable. Back cover shows minor dust shadowing but no stains, no writing, and no coupon cuts. Presents great for the grade — a very respectable copy of a key Lois/Lana showdown without the high-grade sticker shock.
