Superman #15/1979
In "Supermans düstere Zukunft," Superman reaktiviert den Wahrscheinlichkeitssimulator to explore a world where Lara, not Jor-El, arrived on Earth first—becoming Supergirl and protector of Smallville. With Jack Kent (Jor-El) drawn to her and the Clark family mistaken in believing Lara and Superman are siblings, the fragile balance of this alternate reality begins to strain. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Curt Swan with inks by Joe Giella and colors by Adrienne Roy, this 1979 tale presents a haunting "what if" with emotional depth. The cover, by Ross Andru and Dick Giordano, captures the moment’s gravity.
In a chilling twist of fate, Superman finds himself trapped in a deadly spiral, his mind besieged by haunting visions orchestrated by General Zod, Faora Hu-Ul, and Jax-Ur from the Phantom Zone. As he battles both physical entrapment and psychological torment, the specter of Lois Lane’s death and a life with Lana Lang and their doomed children test his resolve. With the line between reality and manipulation blurring, Superman must summon every ounce of will to break free before the deception consumes him.
In a twist of fate, Superman revisits the Probability Simulator to imagine a world where Lara, not Jor-El, arrived on Earth first—becoming Supergirl and protecting Smallville as its guardian. Now, as Jack Kent (Jor-El) finds himself drawn to the girl he once called daughter, Laura Clark (Lara) grapples with her own feelings, while the Clark family—Jonathan, Martha, Henry, and Willa—navigate the quiet chaos of a mistaken belief: that she and Clark are siblings. Can destiny still find its way, even when the stars align differently?
