// Archive commentary

Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #95 (DC Comics, cover-dated September 1966) is a routine entry in the long-running Superman-family anthology built around Jimmy Olsen, Superman's photographer sidekick. Under editor Mort Weisinger, the series regularly cast Olsen in outlandish transformation and disguise plots, a formula this issue continues without introducing a new character, origin, or storyline of lasting significance. Its interest to collectors rests on its place in the run and its era rather than on any landmark content.

Certified population for this issue is thin across nearly every grade, with only one or two copies recorded at several tiers and sales data present but incomplete at the top of the census. Pricing follows the pattern typical of unheralded mid-1960s DC issues: modest values through mid grade with a pronounced climb toward the highest certified tiers, reflecting how few surviving copies exist in top condition rather than any surge in collector demand for the title itself.

This issue trades primarily among Superman-family completists and long-run Jimmy Olsen collectors rather than speculators or key-issue investors. Raw copies in low and mid grade remain inexpensive and readily available to fill a run, while a 9.8 slab would represent a genuine rarity given the thin census at the top end, commanding a premium disproportionate to the book's content but consistent with its scarcity in high grade.
