The 70s were an unsung era for the Man of Steel. There was Kirby taking over Jimmy Olsen and introducing the New Gods, Cadmus, and the Forever People. Then you’ve got the creation of Intergang and the possible link of new Daily Planet owner, Morgan Edge, being the ringleader. Finally, the 70s proved a man can fly with Christopher Reeve starring as Superman.
Here, we have a great-Earth 2 reprint that tells how Clark Kent/Superman and Lois Lane got hitched. Along with that tale is a lost story in which a very overworked and underslept Superman is confronted by phantom versions of his greatest enemies. Could a certain imp from the 5th Dimension be behind all this?
A real fun read. Though the ubiquitous love triangle between Supes, Lois, and Lana Lane is childish and takes away from the action elements of the forgotten tale.
Brings back great memories though.
Worth Consuming.
Rating: 9 out of 10 stars.
