☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Invaders Go Home," Superman teams up with an aging Native American mystic during a documentary on the American frontier, using his powers to aid ancient rituals. After the elder's passing, the spirit of the Red Falcon calls upon Superman, stripping him of his abilities and forcing him into a desperate struggle against a man who now sees him as a weapon to wield against the government.
In "The Boy Who Begged to Die!", Superman faces an impossible choice when his accidental use of X-ray vision activates an alien meteor hurtling toward the city. With the entire population evacuated and the explosion imminent, he's moments from releasing the meteor—until a boy with a broken leg stumbles into view. Trapped between saving the city and rescuing one child, Superman must decide what sacrifice truly means.
