Superman Taschenbuch #5

When an alien named Kurx, allergic to other superbeings, accidentally shares a bus ride with Clark Kent, his condition flares up — putting both him and Superman in a tense, unexpected situation. With Steve Lombard caught in the chaos, the line between ally and threat blurs as a strange connection forms between the alien and the Man of Steel.

In "null," Superman finds himself surrounded by adoring fans—thanks to a mind-control trick by the desperate alien Kurx—just as their battle escalates. With Lois Lane, Steve Lombard, and Morgan Edge caught in the chaos, Superman must fight not only Kurx’s cunning but also the unintended consequences of being celebrated too soon.

When Kurx reaches his final stage of illness, he turns to Superman for one last desperate act—sending the Man of Steel two centuries into the past and erasing his memories in the process. With Morgan Edge watching from the shadows, the fate of the future hangs in the balance.

In "Stirb um zu leben!", Superman—living as reporter Clark Kent in 1776—struggles with lost memories as he encounters historical figures like Benjamin Franklin, John Hancock, and General Washington. As strange events awaken fragments of his powers, he must piece together his true identity while confronting the alien threat Karb-brak, who has brought chaos to both past and present.

When the final manuscript of a deceased crime novelist is stolen from a sealed room, the Joker’s daughter, Duela Dent, unexpectedly claims responsibility—leaving Robin, Christine Ariadne, Frank McDonald, Lori Elton, and Lt. Tatem to unravel a mystery that blurs the line between fiction and crime.

In "Raubzug der Finsteren Fünf," the Fatal Five strike again, leaving Duplicate Boy gravely wounded after an attack on Imsk. The Legion of Super-Heroes traces them to their hideout, capturing three of the villains, while Saturn Girl’s telepathic bond with Duplicate Boy offers a fragile hope for his recovery.
