Superman #17/1975
In "Rätsel auf Leben und Tod," a deranged scientist creates a flawed clone from a single cell of Supergirl, resulting in a male entity without any understanding of right or wrong. Written by Cary Bates and illustrated by Art Saaf with inks by Vince Colletta, this 1975 issue explores the tragic dilemma of a being forced to choose between his creator and his genetic twin—only to end his own life in the process. The cover, by Ernie Chua, captures the story’s haunting tone.
In a story from Superman #17 (1975), Supergirl faces a chilling twist when Dr. Forte creates a clone from her DNA—resulting in Superjunge, a male being without moral compass. Trapped between his creator and his genetic twin, the artificial life struggles to find his place before making a choice that defines his existence.
