Superman #253

In "The Kid Who Saved Superman!", Clark Kent investigates strange phenomena in Utah’s salt flats for Morgan Edge, only to become Superman and rescue Lois Lane from a collapsing dune. When a mysterious structure appears—defying his powers—Superman discovers it’s tied to Ferlin Nyxly, who stole a powerful suit and energy slinger before vanishing. The weapon’s energy has now linked Billy Anders with his lurch, and as Superman confronts Nyxly in the desert, he’s met with a shocking sight: Martian Manhunter, seemingly waiting in the ruins.

In "Baby on the Doorstep," Clark Kent is handed a mysterious note leading him to a baby left on a doorstep—just for a few days. But when foreign spies target the child, Superman steps in, uncovering a dangerous secret tied to the baby’s late father’s wartime invention and a mother desperate to keep her son safe.
