Forgotten Gems : "Letitia Lerner, Superman's Babysitter !" from Elseworlds 80-page giant Vol.1 #1 (1999). Script (with some help from Liz Glass), art, colors & lettering by cartoonist Kyle Baker. A story later reprinted in Bizarro Comics HC (2001), Bizarro Comics SC (2003), DC Comics Presents:Elseworlds 80-Page Giant #1 (2012), Elseworlds:Justice League Vol. 2 TPB (2017) and Bizarro Comics:The Deluxe Edition HC (2021).

Fun Fact #1 : "All of the existing copies of the issue were withdrawn and pulped after Paul Levitz became concerned about a scene in the story "Letitia Lerner, Superman's Babysitter". The scene in question involved a young baby (Superman) trapped in a microwave. The story was later reprinted in Bizarro Comics. It also won Kyle Baker two Eisner Awards for Best Short Story and Best/Writer Artist."

Fun Fact #2 : "The story from the 2005 Pixar short "Jack-Jack Attack" was heavily inspired by "Letitia Lerner, Superman's Babysitter"."

Hi Tom! You were wondering about the provenance of that "Awk Krash Squauk Aaawk" Neal Adams splash? It's from Strange Adventures no. 210 (March 1968, DC), a Deadman tale entitled 'Hide and Seek'. Here's the printed version.

Cheers!
