“Superman's Time-Killing Trip!”

In "Superman's Time-Killing Trip!", Superman ventures into the distant future only to discover a Earth ravaged by war with the enigmatic Halflings and a red, dying sun that strips him of his powers. Written by Gerry Conway and brought to life by George Tuska’s dynamic art, this 1978 classic sees the Man of Steel facing a world far removed from his own—where his greatest strength is his greatest vulnerability. The cover by Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia captures the stark, alien landscape of this future Earth.
