Superman #8/1973

In a remote corner of Maine, Superman investigates a strange disturbance while posing as Clark Kent, covering a story about potato farmers with Percy Bratton, the son of a wealthy investor. When he intervenes to save a young girl from a bear attack, he stumbles upon a hidden valley where a reclusive Viking-descended community lives in isolation. The mysterious guardian of their eternal flame, Witigoth, sees him as a threat and stands ready to defend their sanctuary.

When Die Rächerin mourns at her father’s grave, she’s ambushed by Die Jets and imprisoned in a psychiatric facility, where she’s forced to confront a twisted scheme to eliminate Dr. King. As she uncovers the hidden network of control within the institution, she begins to expose the sinister reach of Die Jets—known only as the Schlangengrube.
