Okay, here's a pre-Crisis question: Who was the first person the Justice League of America told of their "secret origin" (involving the attack on J'Onn J'Onzz by Commander Blanx)?

The obvious answer is "Snapper Carr," but I'm going to guess Firestorm.

When our story opens, the Question is investigating an impossible locked-room murder mystery involving a midget and a 6'6"-tall call girl into heavy bondage. Don't worry, I'll explain later. It's all vitally relevant.

I can only guess, from CuCr's silence, that the correct answer has not yet been posted... that, and I misread the question.

I'll guess it was Lois Lane.

The silence of the ham is correctly interpreted. No correct answer yet; not Snapper nor Firestorm, Wonder Woman nor Lois Lane.

Green Arrow.

He figured out a dsicrepency in the dates of the supposed origin, and they spilled the beans to him.

I love that story, and I think it was the inspiration in part for Morrison's opening JLA arc and New Frontier.

Jerry Siegel conceived Superboy in a pitch to his bosses-- but they rejected it. In what significant way did the strip differ from the version they eventually published?

It differed in that Superboy was more like a real teenager. Hormones raging, he'd often use his telescopic and X Ray vision to get a look at the girls goods. He also like the taste of Black Label beer and he did a lot of drug experimentation. And when he knocked cows down, he knocked them down good. And then there's his knocking over of the neighbors outhouse on occassion... usually when the neighbor was in it.

Wild guess here, but I'll say it wasn't the adventures of Superman when he was a boy, but a different person altogether.
