Is Silver Age Superman immune to Kryptonite?

No, Silver Age Superman was not immune to Kryptonite; he was extremely vulnerable, just like other versions, but his immense power levels and the often-bizarre Silver Age logic sometimes allowed him to resist it briefly or find creative, temporary solutions (like using a lead box or having Krypto help), but it always weakened him severely. While some later stories (like Kingdom Come) showed a Superman becoming more resistant, classic Silver Age comics depicted Kryptonite as a significant threat that could incapacitate or kill him, even if he could sometimes overcome it with sheer willpower or cleverness.
