Superman #27/1979
In "Die Angst vor der Bombe," young scientist Grant Haskill's revolutionary remote-controlled robot—guided via an iron skeleton—takes on perilous tasks inside a nuclear reactor. When a terrorist detonates a bomb, Grant’s consciousness is transferred into the machine, leading to a tense standoff with Superman, who arrives to avert disaster. With Curt Swan’s art bringing the action to life and Ross Andru and Dick Giordano’s cover capturing the moment’s urgency, this 1979 issue delivers a gripping tale of technology, fear, and mistaken identity.
In "Die Angst vor der Bombe," young scientist Grant Haskill finds himself fused with the very robot he designed to handle atomic dangers—when a terrorist's bomb detonates in the reactor, his consciousness is transferred into the machine. As Superman arrives to stop the disaster, a desperate clash unfolds between the hero and the robotic form, now wielding energy blasts that encase the Man of Steel in a steel cocoon. With Lois Lane, Mrs. Macklin, and others watching in dread, the line between savior and threat blurs in a moment of high-stakes confusion.
