Superman #2

In "L'adieu à la Terre de Lana Lang!", Superman's world takes a poignant turn as Vartox, a visitor from another planet, arrives on Earth with a quiet mission: to say goodbye to Lana Lang. With a mysterious force granting her the chance to return to Vartox’s homeworld, the story unfolds with emotional weight and quiet wonder. Written by Cary Bates and brought to life with Curt Swan’s iconic art, Dave Hunt’s inks, Anthony Tollin’s colors, and Robert Schoolcraft’s letters, this 1982 issue captures a rare moment of personal choice in the Superman mythos. The cover, by Rich Buckler and Dick Giordano, perfectly frames the bittersweet farewell.
