I believe if you check the source, that's as "classic" Supes as you can get.

Yes.

What's funny is that his method of preventing it involves bringing the real guilty party to the governor instead of stopping the execution himself and THEN explaining the truth.

It's like using his super voice to call for police instead of catching the bad guys.

People who wrote golden-age American comics were pretty much the dumbest people on the planet.

Every time I've seen that story, it bugs me that they leapt right over 'Supergirl' to a name so clunky it had to be a deliberate choice not to use the more obvious one.

Google tells me Supergirl proper first appeared in 1959, so they were probably trying to avoid confusion since the Super Sister issue is from a year later. It's still an awkward name.

Eh, call me crazy, and I'm no expert, but the first one seems like it'd involve fewer legal ramifications. I wouldn't want to be the judge having to untangle "An invincible strongman who shoots fire from his eyes* burst into the room and told us to stop" as opposed to "The duly elected governor of the state exercised his authority (because an invincible strongman who shoots fire from his eyes said so)."

* Did Superman have heat vision in Action #1? Anyway, you get the idea.

That reminds me of the short story I read 45-years ago about when Superboy hit puberty, discovered masturbation, and shot loads all through the walls & the ceiling of his bedroom, and on through the roof (& probably into space).

He had to figure out how to fix it before his folks found out.

It covered his first sexual experience with the opposite sex, when very unfortunate things happened to the poor girl when he achieved orgasm which was noted in the story as a moment when all self-control is on hold.
