Superman #22
In "The Star Creatures," Tommy and Brent rescue the alien S'Loro from a collapsing planetoid, only to be granted a mysterious protective fume that seems to shield them from danger—until their narrow escapes start to feel too convenient. Written by Jack Miller and illustrated by Jim Mooney, this 1960 adventure unfolds with a twist of deception, as the duo begins to suspect the alien's "gift" is a trap. The cover by Curt Swan and Stan Kaye captures the cosmic tension of the story, perfectly framing the mystery of S'Loro's true intentions.
In "The Star Creatures," an alien movie producer sets an elaborate trap in a remote location, using captured criminals Beaver and Midge to lure Superman, Batman, and Robin into a bizarre cinematic spectacle. As strange alien creatures are unleashed for the film’s sake, chaos erupts when the criminals break free and seize the alien’s technology for their own ends. The World’s Finest must step in before the production spirals out of control.
In "The Sorcerer from Space," Tommy Tomorrow and Brent Wood rescue the alien S'Loro the Sorcerer from a collapsing planetoid, only to find themselves under a strange protective fume that seems to grant them luck. As they narrowly avoid danger after danger, they begin to question whether their good fortune is real—or a trick. When a suspicious vulture leads them to a trap, Tommy realizes the truth: S'Loro’s so-called magic is a deception, and the real danger is just beginning.
