    Default Have we ever seen Jimmy as a dad?

    In all sorts of AUs and even in canon, we've seen Clark as a dad. Lucy had a child (who disappeared). But have we ever seen Jimmy as a dad. I know I've seen a silver age cover/panel (can't recall which) of him and Lucy with a grown child, but I mean have we ever seen any version with him with a kid, seen how he acted as a father, how he parented? Just popped in my head that I wondered what kind of dad he'd be.

    Yeah, in the recent Mark Russell 12-parter Jimmy was always talking about how much he enjoys his visits to Gorilla City. I suppose he likes getting in touch with his inner monkey.

    I've done a massive Silver and Bronze Age Superman marathon this year, and this is the only instance I can think of Jimmy being a dad, even with all the possible future stories they did.
    It is at least noteworthy that Kristen Wells, from the Earth 1 canon novel Miracle Monday and two or three DC Comics Presents annuals, was Jimmy's direct descendant from the future. IIRC, Jimmy had two sons and a daughter in the future, but we only hear about them in passing.

    That’s really interesting about Kristen Wells! Thanks for sharing.

    Appropriate enough that Superman 2020 and 2021, the back up stories from the early 80s, featured grandpa Jimmy

    Check out Bendis's Superman issue#9, in the opening dream sequence, Jimmy appears to have a kid with Talia Al Gul.
    He also appeared in issue#5 dream sequence for Zod though I can't tell if he's married.
