Superman #4/1984
In "Superman: Freund oder Feind?", Superman races across the globe to save children by finding a cure, constantly diverted by disasters he must stop along the way. As the Metropolis Eagle initially questions his motives, the hero's unwavering dedication slowly shifts public perception. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated with powerful precision by Gil Kane—both on pencils and inks, with colors by Anthony Tollin—this 1984 issue captures Superman's relentless drive in a story that tests both his strength and his resolve. The cover, also by Gil Kane, perfectly frames the urgency of his mission.
In "Superman: Freund oder Feind?", Superman races across the globe to save children dying from a rare illness, thwarting disasters at every turn—each heroic act challenging the skepticism of the Metropolis Eagle, which initially questions his motives. As the Daily Planet’s team, including Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, and Perry White, grapples with the unfolding crisis, the line between savior and threat blurs, especially when unexpected figures like Justin Moore and the enigmatic Red Star (Vision) enter the fray.
When the mischievous Mr. Mxyztplk accidentally snatches Superman along with a passenger plane during a dimensional experiment, the Man of Steel finds himself trapped in the bizarre 5th Dimension ZRFFF—where even the royal court of King Brpxz and the occasional poster of Charly Chaplin can't distract from the real trouble: a very annoyed Kryptonian on the loose.
