Superman #230

This 1970 DC imaginary story puts a deliciously wild twist on the Superman mythos: a "Wanted" poster for Clark Kent — charged with armed robbery — sets the stage for the cover's electric confrontation between a gun-wielding Kent and a cape-wearing, bald-headed Super Luthor, who boasts "Nobody takes ME — not even you, Superman!" as energy crackles against his chest. Curt Swan's pencils and Murphy Anderson's inks give the scene a sharp, dramatic charge, with squad cars and soldiers visible in the background underscoring just how high the stakes have been raised. "Killer Kent Versus Super Luthor" promises the kind of gleefully off-formula storytelling that made DC's imaginary tales so entertaining in 1970.
