Superman #5/1980
In "Der Tag des Sternkinds," Superman and Supergirl face a rare challenge: within just one day, they must teach an alien artificial being everything they know—especially how to feel. Written by Cary Bates and brought to life with Curt Swan’s iconic art, Frank Chiaramonte’s inks, and Gene D’Angelo’s colors, this heartfelt adventure explores connection and humanity in a way only the Man of Steel can. The cover by Ross Andru and Dick Giordano captures the moment’s quiet wonder.
