How Batman’s Prank War with Jimmy Olsen CHANGED Comic Books
#Jimuary #JimmyOlsen #Batman
It’s finally here! This #Jimuary, I examine one of my favorite comic books of all time: Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen: Who Killed Jimmy Olsen?, by Matt Fraction, Steve Lieber, Nathan Fairbairn, and Clayton Cowles. But I’m not covering the story as a whole; rather, I’m examining Jimmy Olsen’s prank war with Batman, as that single event in the story would reshape the medium of comics for centuries to come. I hope you enjoy watching, and have a jolly #Jimuary!
