While it was made as an Anthology Comic featuring multiple different stories and characters, it is notable for featuring the debut story of Superman, one of the world's first superheroes and one of the most iconic fictional characters of all time.In addition, the magazine contains several other stories, including the western tale "Chuck Dawson", "Zatara: Master Magician", the two-page text story "South Sea Strategy", a cartoony gag story "Sticky-Mitt Stimson", a comic based on The Adventures of Marco Polo, the boxing story "'Pep' Morgan", "Scoop Scanlon: Five Star Reporter", "Tex Thompson" (another western tale), with two more pages dedicated to caricatures and gag drawings.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })An expanded version of Superman's debut story was later told in his self-titled magazine, Superman #1.

comment
Anti-Villain: The governor's butler is a jerk who tries to kill Superman, but he's understandably spooked by Superman's powers and ruthless conduct (namely breaking and entering into his house in the dead of night) in trying to speak to the governor, believing him to be a madman trying to menace his boss. Though he quickly comes around after he realizes Superman is a force for good.
