The Made-to-Order Menace!

In "The Made-to-Order Menace!", the cosmic bard Toabee crafts a monstrous creation not for conquest, but to inspire his next ballad—setting Superman on a collision course with a being born of song and steel. To make the spectacle even more dramatic, Toabee also constructs a perfect duplicate of Clark Kent, freeing the Man of Steel to face his fate with no ties to the world below.
