Rob's Room: Superman vs. Perry White’s desk in Action Comics by Curt Swan

Superman vs. Perry White’s desk in Action Comics #237, #264 and #302, all covers by Curt Swan (via Raiders of the Lost Tumblr). Updated with Superboy doing desk damage in Action Comics #284 (Thanks, Brian!). 
Damn inflation... just noticed the 2¢ jump between these comic prices back in 1962. A 20% hike!

To paraphrase Jaye P. Morgan from an episode with the imaginary Greens: “Pounding down that desk!”

Hilarious! Silver Age Superman is about as perfect as comics can get. A real joy.

See also, Action Comics 284 ... another Curt Swan cover where this time Superboy destroys Perry's desk.

Thanks, Brian! The post has been updated.
Why do Kryptonians hate desks so much...?
