Superman #4
"Le Joueur" marks a standout entry in the Superman mythos from 1967, penned by Gardner Fox and brought to life by Sheldon Moldoff’s expressive art, with Joe Giella’s precise inks adding depth to every panel. When the enigmatic Joueur escapes custody, vowing to abandon his signature riddles before his next crime, Superman must follow subtle clues—starting with the faint scent of a rat—through a web of deception that only the Man of Steel can unravel. Cover by Sheldon Moldoff.
In "Le Joueur," the enigmatic criminal known as the Joueur escapes prison vowing to abandon his signature riddles—yet Batman, guided by the faint scent of a rat and subtle clues, begins piecing together a trail that leads straight to the gang of the Sphinx.
When a young reporter pretends to be a Martian visitor from Mars to boost newspaper sales, things take an unexpected turn—especially when the real Martian, Jaxx 4928, shows up. This quirky, offbeat tale blends humor and sci-fi charm in a classic Superman anthology story.
