My wife mentioned the “Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen: Who Killed Jimmy Olsen?” comic to me because she saw a couple of pages from it online, and it looked very, very weird. So I ordered it. I finished it this morning.
And indeed! It is very, very weird. Funny weird, and heavily leaning into the way Jimmy Olsen has the Weirdness Magnet disadvantage at remarkable levels. It’s also entertainingly cranky about the way that online media is screwing up newspapers’ very existence, although possibly it’s entertaining me in a different way than was originally intended. Either way, check it out.

PS: The people who made this don’t make fun of the old-school Superman, although they do have some jokes at the modern Batman’s expense.
