DescriptionI just love it, 100% "Schaff" as he inked this beauty himself ! And Supergirl title pages don't come up often from this period, I always wanted to own one ! Linda (S-Girl) Danvers viewing a large museum exhibit from the 40th (!) century showing a statue of her super self in chains, under arrest for crimes against humanity (another "!). If someone needs a proof that in 1968 some comic writers took drugs: the story (copied from the DC data webpage)- even for DC standards of the Silver Age - is quite bizarre:"Linda Danvers is chosen by a Stanhope student from 4,000 A.D. to visit their college in the future. Once there, she discovers that Supergirl is considered an outlaw, and supposedly stole moon mail from the first lunar landing in 1970, intending to sell it and profit from it herself. When she reveals herself to stop an out-of-control robot, Supergirl is captured with Green Kryptonite, tried, and sentenced to have the word "OUTLAW" branded on her forehead with a special ray, though her defender in court appears to be a time-traveling Robin from the 20th Century. However, Robin is actually Mister Mxyzptlk of the 40th Century, who has magically commanded everyone on Earth to believe Supergirl is a criminal. Supergirl deduces his ruse when she sees "Robin" flying without a Legion Flight Ring, tricks Mr. Mxyzptlk LX into saying his name backwards, and undoes his magic, including the "OUTLAW" brand, which was his doing. She then returns to the 20th Century." For more nice Schaffenberger art look up my "Superman Family" and Curt Swan galleries. Social/Sharing |

Great splash page! There's a real nostalgic tug with this era DC art, especially with artists like Schaffenberger and Swan.

Great Schaffenberger and Supergirl page. Even on this relatively simple page, those sharp Schaffenberger inks are apparent.
