Notes:
David Mandel wrote "The Bizarro Jerry" episode of the TV show, "Seinfeld," which spoofs the Bizarro concept. Introduction is illustrated with images of Bizarro-Lois #1 (cropped from the cover), Bizarro #1 and Bizarro-Lois #1 hugging (panel 6 of page 12 of "The Kookie Super-Ape!" from Adventure Comics #295, reproduced here in black-and-white) and an image of Bizarro #1's medallion (isolated from panel 4 of page 9 of "Bizarro's Amazing Buddies!" from Adventure Comics #289.).
Notes:
On the right half of the third page of David Mandel's introduction. Article is illustrated three panels from Bizarro stories not reprinted in this volume: panel 4 of page 3 of "The Amazing Bizarro, chapter 1 of "The Boy of Steel Versus the Thing of Steel" from Superboy #68; panel 2 of page 4 of "The Battle With Bizarro!" from Action Comics #254; and panel 2 of page 12 of "The Bride of Bizarro!" from Action Comics #255. The article incorrectly cites Action Comics #244 and 245 as the first comic book appearance of the adult Bizarro Superman instead of Action Comics #254 and 255.
