Adventures of Superman #566

In "And Lose His Soul," Superman's growing reliance on robotic surveillance reaches a breaking point when he intercepts Lexcorp's secret project to create synthetic Kryptonite—leading him to hurl the top of the building into space. As police and the Justice League confront his escalating actions, tensions rise and trust begins to fracture. Written by Karl Kesel and Jerry Ordway, with art by Tom Grummett and inks by Denis Rodier, this pivotal 1999 issue captures a turning point in Superman’s relationship with authority—and his own humanity—through a story grounded in moral complexity and escalating stakes. Cover by Tom Grummett and Denis Rodier.
