    Curt Swan cover. Otto Binder (writer) and Dick Sprang (artist) present the classic three-part tale, "The Three Magic Wishes." Jimmy Olsen gets his hands on a wish-granting totem, and wishes a 'Super-Girl' into existence (much to the chagrin of Lois Lane), a full nine months before Kara Zor-el's first appearance in Action Comics #252. Also in this issue, due to Jimmy's magic totem, Superman loses his powers and is transported back through space and time to arrange the wedding of his, in Supe's own words, "future dad and mom...(choke!)" 36 Pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
