A scattering of the LOIS LANE strip from the 40s, with a very early Jimmy and what Clark looks like when you never see him as Superman. I apologize for the quality; they are not my scans. I attempted to sharpen them as best I could. You'll notice that despite the "and Joe" credit, these are most likely(most of them) Wayne Boring.

So just who is Lois's invisible sibling that has a kid? Unless Lucy gave this one up for adoption before the Silver Age...

Lois was just waiting for the child snatchers to pick her up and take her to a wonderful new life eating gruel and cobbling women's shoes. And nobody ever heard from Lucy's misshapen bastard brat again.

Jimmy thought of blackmailing Lucy but proved a wuss in the end.

Probably the wise thing to do for Jimmy

I had a lot of uncles and aunts growing up who weren't actually siblings of my parents. I don't know whether it was cultural or just a product of the time period, but 'Aunt' and 'Uncle' were often just defaults. I wonder if they were attempting a Nancy and Aunt Fritzi thing?

Same thing here. "Uncle" was pretty much a form of address for any middle-aged or older man when I grew up.
