Superman #13/1970
In "Hinrichtung auf Krypton," Superman is thrust into a shocking journey across space and time when Jor-El and Lara unexpectedly appear before him, their words sending a chill through the Man of Steel. As he races to unravel their mysterious intentions, he breaches the fabric of reality and finds himself on Krypton—just as the planet’s fate begins to unfold. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Ross Andru with inks by Mike Esposito, this pivotal issue features a cover by Curt Swan and Jack Abel.
When Batman and Superman suddenly encounter Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van, a chilling statement from Jor-El sends Superman reeling. With time and space unraveling, he is thrust across the cosmos—arriving on the long-lost world of Krypton, where the echoes of his origins begin to unfold.
In a tense mission on the forgotten island of Bokos, Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van guide a group of Kryptonian trainees through the shadows, their goal to retrieve the remains of a long-dead hero—without being detected. As the mission unfolds, the weight of legacy and the quiet presence of Superman and Batman, disguised among the ranks, add layers of mystery to the perilous journey.
When Superman grants Lois Lane extraordinary powers using a mysterious device, their dynamic takes a surprising turn—just as she begins to embrace her new abilities, Clark Kent starts to suspect she’s not the only one with a secret identity. With Perry White, Jimmy Olsen, and the enigmatic villain "Finger" Rouk caught in the middle, trust begins to unravel in Metropolis.
