Superman #22/1977
In "Die Rache eines Toten," Atom—now known as Ray Palmer—ventures into the past using Professor Hyatt’s time machine to investigate a mysterious flaw in the first telephone’s history. Disguised as a 19th-century inventor, he uncovers a sabotage plot tied to Alexander Bell’s groundbreaking invention, racing against time to prevent a historical deception. Written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by Steve Stiles, with inks by Bob McLeod and colors by Liz Berube, this 1977 tale blends science and suspense, all wrapped in a striking cover by Jim Aparo.
When Ray Palmer discovers the first telephone might not have worked, he uses Professor Hyatt’s time machine to travel to May 10, 1876, as the Atom. There, he uncovers a sabotage plot targeting Alexander Bell, with Elisha Gray and Watson involved in a tense race to protect the invention’s future. With the help of President Grant and Professor Hyatt’s research, he must ensure history stays on track—before the past is rewritten.
