Superman #13/1982
In "Star-Kill!", Superman faces a chilling threat from a weapon long thought destroyed: the planet-sized Energy Absorber, now on a course to reverse the Big Bang. Though Brainiac, once a villain, now seeks to atone by warning the Man of Steel, his past actions have set a catastrophic chain in motion. Marv Wolfman's gripping tale, brought to life by Curt Swan’s iconic art and Frank Chiaramonte’s inks, sees Superman confront a danger that could unravel existence itself—while the cover by Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia captures the epic scale of the looming peril.
When Brainiac, once Superman’s archenemy, warns the Man of Steel of a dormant planet-sized weapon he once created—the Energy Absorber—danger looms. Now growing unchecked, the device is silently gathering matter, threatening to reverse the Big Bang. With Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White at the Daily Planet, and Morgan Edge watching from the shadows, Superman must decide whether to trust the reformed alien, even as Earth’s fate hangs in the balance.
In a story where Superman’s powers are dangerously compromised, the Man of Steel finds himself blind to the looming disasters around him—while Brainiac battles a long-lost creation in the Fortress of Solitude. With Lois, Jimmy, and Perry struggling to make sense of the chaos, Superman must rely on those he once protected to see what he can no longer perceive.
