Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane #114: Lois Plays Hero in a Protest-Packed Punch-Up!
Get ready for a socially charged slugfest in Superman’s Girl Friend, Lois Lane Vol 1 #114 (September 1971), where Lois Lane trades her notepad for a front-row seat to revolution—and a fire bomb! On a mission to recruit Dave Stevens, a sharp young black writer, for the Daily Planet, Lois strolls into a buzzing black community and finds Dave and his girlfriend Tina plotting a protest for better living conditions. Barely out the door, they’re jumped by goons from the 100—because nothing says “welcome” like a henchman ambush! Cue the Thorn, a badass vigilante, swooping in to save the day, and off they go to the protest site, where the 100’s planted troublemakers to spark a riot. Talk about a scoop with a side of chaos!
Superman and Thorn crash the party to squash the violence, and Supes flexes his do-gooder muscles by whipping up a snazzy housing model for the community. Cue the celebration—until the 100 lobs a fire bomb into the mix. Lois, proving she’s got more guts than a grenade, snags the sizzling surprise and yeets it to safety, scorching her hands in the process. While she’s playing hot potato, she spots Thorn sneaking off to brawl with America Awakes, a nasty splinter group of the 100, and watches her take ‘em down like a pro. In the end, Dave lands the Daily Planet gig as its first black writer, Tina showers Lois with love, and our gal gets patched up—burnt hands and all!
Current Value: As of April 10, 2025, this socially spicy issue is holding strong at $60-$90 in VG/FN condition. It’s a Bronze Age standout with cultural clout that’s got collectors taking notice.
Expected Value Trends: This one’s primed to heat up faster than that fire bomb! With Superman’s 2025 buzz and a growing appetite for socially relevant comics, #114 could climb to $120-$150 in the next couple of years—especially if DC spotlights Lois’s heroics or Dave Stevens in a retro nod. The Thorn’s cult following and the issue’s protest vibe add extra juice—collectors love a comic with a cause! It’s a sleeper hit with serious street cred!
Key Character Appearances: Lois Lane is the fearless star, juggling journalism and Molotovs like a champ. Dave Stevens and Tina bring the heart and hustle, while the Thorn steals scenes as the vigilante with a vengeance. Superman’s the muscle, building homes and breaking up fights, with the 100 and their America Awakes cronies playing the sneering villains. It’s a packed cast with punch!
Grab this issue and dive into a tale where Lois proves she’s more than a headline hound—she’s a bomb-tossing, community-saving queen. It’s a comic that’s equal parts gritty, gutsy, and gloriously groovy!
