In "The Evil Factory," Superman faces a new threat as Mokkari and Simyan unleash the Kryptonite Man, testing the Man of Steel like never before. Meanwhile, Clark Kent juggles a freelance assignment for the Daily Planet, while Jo and Jimmy deal with personal challenges—Jo with a sudden job offer from Joe Morgan, and Jimmy as he steps in to help his mother. Jerry Ordway’s dynamic art and storytelling bring this layered, high-stakes chapter to life, with cover art by Ordway himself capturing the tension in bold, striking detail.
