Superman #125

In "Lois Lane's Super-Dream," Lois Lane wakes from a hospital bed after a near-fall, her mind spinning with a surreal vision where she and Clark Kent—now Power-Girl and Power-Man—rule the skies with newfound strength. Though she commands the role of hero with bold confidence, Clark struggles to match her drive, his gentle nature clashing with the demands of their super-powered lives.

In a nostalgic flashback from Superman’s college years, the young Clark Kent faces off against Professor Thaddeus V. Maxwell, a skeptical academic determined to prove his student’s secret identity. When the professor subjects Clark to a polygraph test, the moment becomes a test of truth, identity, and the weight of growing up—where a simple “No” carries more meaning than any superhero feat.

In "Superman's New Power!", Superman grapples with an unexpected twist when a burst of alien energy from a crashed spaceship leaves him powerless—yet grants him the strange ability to summon a tiny, self-sustaining duplicate of himself. As the "Super-Imp" takes on heroic tasks and captures the public's adoration, Superman finds his confidence waning, leading to a tense decision that tests his resolve and the limits of his trust in his own creation.
