Superman #7/1977
In "Wie killt man einen Superman - Teil 1 : Superman, wer bist du?", Batman shrinkes to microscopic size and infiltrates Kandor, where he overhears a shocking revelation: Superman was crowned king of the city to prevent civil war—yet something about him has changed since. Written by Bob Haney and illustrated by Dick Dillin with inks by John Calnan, this 1977 issue sees Batman captured by the High Council, who promise to deal with the "Steel One" themselves. Soon after, the mysterious figure vanishes—only to reemerge with a new, ominous threat against Earth, forcing the U.S. President to task Batman with a mission that could change everything. The cover, by Ernie Chua with inks by John Calnan, captures the tension perfectly.
In a tense showdown within the trapped city of Kandor, Batman confronts Superman with a deadly plan, aided by the enigmatic Dev-Re and the mysterious Van-Zee. As the zirkonische, achtbeinige Katze watches from the shadows, the fate of the Man of Steel hangs in the balance.
Jimmy Olsen is determined to join the Klub der Kriminalisten, but a single flaw threatens to keep him out—despite his best efforts. Furious at the setback, he hatches a daring plan: convincing Robin to temporarily take his place, slipping in unnoticed while Batman remains unaware.
