Superman #298

A striking cover by Bob Oksner sets the tone for this April 1976 issue, showing Superman strolling arm-in-arm with a smiling dark-haired woman as chaos erupts in the background — fires rage, vehicles tumble, and a panicked figure scrambles to escape. The woman's speech bubble pointedly declares that the world can get along without Superman, making the titled story "Clark Kent, Get Out of My Life!" feel all the more intriguing. With Cary Bates and Elliot S! Maggin on scripting duties and Curt Swan among the interior artists, this is a solid slice of Bronze Age Superman storytelling.
