“[The Death of Superman!] Part I: Lex Luthor, Hero!”

In "The Death of Superman! Part I: Lex Luthor, Hero!", Superman faces a bizarre twist as Lex Luthor takes an unexpected turn—publicly hailed as a hero after a series of events that leave even the Man of Steel questioning the truth. This 1961 issue, drawn with crisp precision by Curt Swan and inked by Sheldon Moldoff, features a unique behind-the-scenes look at the fallout from the wildly popular "Great Superman Boo-Boo Contest" from issue #145, complete with a list of winners and examples of the errors fans discovered. The cover, penciled by Swan and inked by Stan Kaye, captures the moment with a mix of humor and intrigue.
