Superman #5/1968
In "Supermans Regenbogengesicht," Lex Luthor escapes custody and hatches a daring plan to steal the gold reserves at Fort Knox—using a Kryptonite cannon to neutralize Superman’s powers. With Curt Swan’s iconic art and Bill Finger’s sharp storytelling, this 1968 classic delivers a tense showdown between the Man of Steel and his archenemy, all rendered in striking detail on a cover by Curt Swan and George Klein.
When red Kryptonite causes Superman’s face to shift colors during intense reactions, he’s forced to think fast to hide the changes from those around him—especially Lois Lane and Perry White. With Jimmy Olsen (as Pokal) caught in the middle, Clark Kent must juggle his dual identity while keeping his glowing secret under wraps.
When reporter Vicki Vale accidentally snaps a photo of the Batmobile, Batman and Robin are anything but thrilled—her lens might expose their secret identities. To keep their cover safe, they try to distract her with tales of the Batmobile’s mysterious past, but the truth behind the vehicle may be even more surprising than they imagined.
Lex Luthor escapes prison and sets his sights on stealing the gold reserves at Fort Knox, using a Kryptonite cannon to neutralize Superman’s powers. With Lois Lane caught in the crossfire and a mysterious Superman Robot standing in the hero’s place, the Man of Steel must find a way to stop Luthor’s plan before the nation’s wealth is lost.
