Superman #2/1969
In "Krösus von Metropolis," Jimmy Olsen finds himself unexpectedly tasked with spending a million dollars in just 24 hours—a challenge that quickly spirals into chaos. Written by Leo Dorfman and brought to life by Curt Swan’s art with George Klein’s inks, this 1969 classic captures the whimsical yet high-stakes energy of Superman’s world, with Swan and Klein also handling the cover.
Jimmy Olsen is left a million-dollar challenge by a will—spend it all in 24 hours, or lose it. With Superman’s help and a mysterious recording from Ron Hilton on tape, Jimmy races to find the right way to give it away, only to discover that even the most generous intentions can lead to unexpected chaos.
In "Supergör (2)," teenage Superboy faces off against the cunning Super-Gör, who’s determined to steal Clark Kent’s life and reputation—only to find his plans derailed by Krypto’s uncanny sense of smell. With Lana Lang caught in the crossfire and the Derek siblings pulling strings from the shadows, Superboy must rely on more than just strength to outwit a foe who’s learned to mimic his every move.
In "Das seltsame Experiment des Dr. Erdel," the brilliant but reclusive Dr. Erdel creates a robot brain capable of teleportation—only to find it accidentally transports the Martian detective John Jones to Earth. With the scientist dead and no way home, John Jones must navigate a new world, eventually choosing to use his alien abilities to serve justice as a police detective.
