Superman #3/1985
In "Das große Bastler Quiz!", the former criminal Der Bastler escapes prison and launches a bizarre television quiz show, using the spotlight to track down his old childhood friend—the one who stole his first handmade toy. Written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by Kurt Schaffenberger, with inks by Dennis Jensen and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1985 issue features a cover by Eduardo Barreto, blending nostalgia and mischief in a story that turns a childhood grudge into a public spectacle.
In "Das große Bastler Quiz!", Superman [Clark Kent] finds himself caught in a bizarre game show orchestrated by the newly freed Bastler [Winslow P. Schott], who’s using the spotlight of a televised quiz to hunt down his old childhood rival—the one who stole his first handmade toy. With Lana Lang, Josh Coyle, Inspektor Bill Henderson, and Chester Y. Dunholz all drawn into the chaotic spectacle, the line between nostalgia and menace blurs in this 1985 Superman tale.
In "John Does Rache!", Superman faces off against the enigmatic John Doe, a fugitive armed with sonic-blaster-cuffs and plagued by sudden, unexplained lapses in memory. As the Man of Steel tries to unravel the mystery behind Doe’s strange behavior, he’s drawn into a web of confusion that tests his instincts and puts his closest allies—Lana Lang, Josh Coyle, and Perry White—on edge.
