Superman (Volume 1 1939) Issues 101-150

Between issues 101-150 of Superman comics, spanning from November 1955 to January 1962, we see the transition from the Golden Age to the Silver Age. Al Plastino remained a dominant figure in the art, while Curt Swan emerged as a major talent, defining the look of Superman for decades to come. Key writers during this period included Jerry Siegel, Otto Binder, and Jerry Coleman. Siegel, the co-creator of Superman, continued to contribute significant stories, often exploring the character's origins and mythology. Binder and Coleman provided a steady stream of imaginative tales, introducing iconic villains like Mr. Mxyzptlk and pushing the boundaries of science fiction. Major story arcs during this period include the 'Superman of the Past' saga, which delved into Kryptonian history, and the 'Death of Superman' storyline, a shocking event that shook the comic book world.
