Dating Lucy Lane: The Buffer

Look, it's all very well and good to be smooching Lucy Lane, but it was the 1960s and she was a proper and ladylike. You can watch TV with her on the same couch, but you need to keep a cushion between you and ABSOLUTELY NO BLANKETS!!! And if you even think of crossing the line, she'll put your greatest fear on that center cushion to make sure you can't.

For Jimmy, that's apparently a cute, adorable, barely clawed chastity belt. Just a dream, you'll say, but don't you have dreams that are rooted in reality? The ones where you lose your keys or whatever? How do we know this isn't one of those? It's no more surreal than the rest of Jimmy's life.

From Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #61 (1962).
