Superman #3/1971
In "Die Frau im Witwenschleier," Jimmy Olsen unwittingly unleashes a mysterious camera with a dangerous power—when aimed through its lens, it can erase objects from existence. With the help of Professor Potter, Jimmy soon discovers the device’s true potential, but not before a cunning gangster sees a chance to exploit it and take down Superman. Written by Otto Binder and brought to life with Curt Swan’s iconic art and Ray Burnley’s inks, this 1971 classic features a cover by Neal Adams that captures the story’s eerie intrigue.
A mysterious woman in mourning attire arrives at Bruce Wayne’s doorstep, warning that her husband’s death is imminent. As Batman investigates, he’s drawn into a web of secrets involving Amy Paxton, Angie Randall, and Van Paxton—each with their own ties to the enigmatic figure known as Laird and the unsettling presence of Angela.
When Professor Potter hands Jimmy Olsen an old camera, he doesn’t realize it can erase anything in its view—starting with a few small objects, then something much bigger. Soon, Jimmy’s curiosity turns into a crisis when a gangster learns of the camera’s power and plans to use it to defeat Superman. With Lois Lane and Perry White caught in the crossfire, Jimmy must figure out how to stop the chaos before the camera’s reach grows too far.
In "Wenn die Masken fallen!", der Grüne Pfeil und Flitzer face the shocking revelation that their secret identities have been exposed—publicly, in the pages of a newspaper. With the Polizeichef of Star City watching, they deliberately unmask before him, only to find his disbelief turning their moment of truth into something far more uncertain.
