HISTORY
An intern at the
Metropolis newspaper The
Daily Planet, Jimmy Olsen was persuaded by reporters
Lois Lane and
Clark Kent to get a full-time job with the 'paper, which he did, graduating from office boy to photographer when his flair with the camera became obvious. He has also become firm friends with the heroes who defend Metropolis, most notably the Guardian and
Superman. He has grown into a brave man with a good heart, though he does have a weakness where beautiful women are concerned.
