“The Land-Lords of Earth!”

In "The Land-Lords of Earth!", Superman finds himself imprisoned by mysterious aliens who dwell within the Moon—creatures who claim Earth was once their domain and now seek to reclaim it. With the Justice League inexplicably forgetting their heroic identities, the burden falls solely on Superman to challenge a threat that's as much about perception as it is about power. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Curt Swan, with inks by Frank Chiaramonte, colors by Liz Berube, and letters by Milt Snapinn, this 1977 classic features a striking cover by Rich Buckler and Bob Oksner.

Superman is captured by aliens living inside the moon who claim that the moon was originally the main world and they plan to take back the Earth. Meanwhile, the Justice League heroes forget that they are super-heroes, thus they don't interfere with the moon-aliens' plan.
