Daily Planet updates

Thanks to my recent trip to Portland, I managed to pick up most of the DC Dollar Comics, including most of the World's Finests which included the Daily Planet updates.  For those who are too young to remember, DC used to make a mock-up front page simulation of the Daily Planet which it used to advertise the books that were coming out the following week (later, when the pages were only being published twice a month, that timeframe changed to the following two weeks).  Toward the end, it would appear alternately in Superman Family and World's Finest, and I'm now only missing a couple issues of SF.  I also posted an early issue of the DP, and another Justice For All Includes Children, a single page public service comic that featured kids doing something wrong and Superman telling them off and setting them right.  Both of these are avaliable under the DC Features link on the left.
