Superman #13
In "Superman, sarai la mia morte," a powerful alien exiled on Earth—suffering from an allergy to beings like himself—faces a terrifying relapse as Superman's presence triggers his condition, driving him to desperate measures. Written by Cary Bates and brought to life with Curt Swan's iconic art and Tex Blaisdell's inks, this 1977 tale explores isolation and fear through a unique twist on the Man of Steel's legacy. The cover, by Bob Oksner, captures the tension of a world teetering on the edge of a collision between two extraordinary beings.
In a twist of cosmic irony, an alien exile named Karb-Brak—suffering from a rare allergy to beings of superhuman power—finds his condition worsening due to Superman’s presence on Earth. As his desperation grows, he resolves to eliminate the very hero whose existence makes his life unbearable. With Steve Lombard caught in the crossfire, the fate of Metropolis hangs in the balance.
When a mysterious man begins a deadly pattern of marrying women and killing them with a single kiss, Supergirl [Linda Lee Danvers] finds herself drawn into a chilling mystery—especially when the trail leads to Durkla, a figure whose past holds secrets too dangerous to ignore.
In "La minaccia teleguidata," a quirky alien composer sets out to craft an epic tale by unleashing synthetic beings upon Superman, including a clone of the Man of Steel himself. With Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and the mysterious Towbee il menestrello (Towbe) caught in the chaos, and Johnny Nevada on the scene, the battle for truth and music unfolds in unexpected ways.
