Heroes vs Dinosaurs SUPERMAN "Hunters' Club!"

The Man of Steel  has Faced Numerous Dinosaurs in His Long Career...

...but none under the circumstances in this story from DC's Superman #50 (1948)!
It's amazing how casual most of the characters are about a living dinosaur in this story written by Edmond Hamilton, penciled by Win Mortimer, and inked by Stan Kaye!
Also that Superman leans towards non-violent ways to handle the situation and avoid killing the various creatures!
BTW, it's only been reprinted once...

Behind BATMAN VS 3 VILLAINS OF DOOM "Crime Parade"

We Have Already Witnessed...

...how a Penguin comic book story was adapted into the premiere Batman prose novel Batman vs 3 Villains of Doom in 1966 by "Winston Lyon" aka William Wollfolk!

Now the Comedic Crown Prince of Crime, The Joker, has his turn to torment the Dynamic Duo in a story from DC's Detective Comics #124 (1947) by writer Edmond Hamilton, pencilled by Bob Kane himself, and inked by George Roussos, converted from this illustrated version to text below!
Pop Culture Note: The title "Crime Parade" is based on the popular live weekly show Your Hit Parade,  which ran on radio from 1935 to 1953, overlapping with a TV version that ran from 1950 to 1959, featuring a in-house band and various big-name vocalists performing the best-selling songs from that week!











Now that you've read the comic tale, read the prose version via these links...
