Superman #256
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA tiger-striped woman lunges at a startled Clark Kent while a cameraman captures the whole confrontation on film — the cover speech bubble warning Kent that "the whole world can see you fight the Tigerwoman on TV!" makes the stakes deliciously awkward for the Man of Steel's secret identity. High above, Superman soars in the background, completing a cover by Nick Cardy that crackles with dynamic energy and a clever double-identity dilemma. Inside, Cary Bates writes and the Curt Swan/Murphy Anderson art team delivers, with the promised lead story "The Dagger That Ripped the Sky!" plus a second tale making this 1972 issue a genuinely satisfying read.
