"Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen is a weird and wild trip throughout the DC Universe, with Silver Age energy and a distinctly modern sensibility courtesy of writer Matt Fraction and artist Steve Lieber! Jimmy Olsen must die! Wait, we're getting ahead of ourselves. Jimmy Olsen lives! Superman's best friend and Daily Planet photographer Jimmy Olsen tours the bizarre underbelly of the DC Universe in this new series featuring death, destruction, giant turtles, and more! It's a centuries-spanning whirlwind of weird that starts in Metropolis and ends in Gotham City."--… (altro)
I was actually a fan of the Jimmy Olsen "Mr. Action" segments in the old Superman Family comic book back in the day and am familiar with Jimmy's cornier adventures from previous decades, so I would consider myself part of the target audience for this homage/parody/nostalgic indulgence. And while it might have been fun for a giant special or short limited series, a 12-issue maxi-series drives the joke into the ground like a ten-minute Saturday Night Live sketch.
It took me two or three hours to read the whole thing, and while I enjoyed the Easter eggs and many Silver Age references, that is more time than anyone should have to spend with Jimmy Olsen. ( )

What's this? While on a wildly successful worldwide book tour for his wildly successful (worldwide) book of photography, our pal Jimmy awakens with the faint taste of gorilla champagne on his breath, wearing only his birthday suit, in a honeymoon suite somewhere in Gorilla City -- shocked to discover he's not alone!
