In "Terraman Terror-Trio," Superman faces his darkest hour when Brainiac—having taken over Lex Luthor’s body—launches a relentless assault on the Fortress of Solitude, aided by the Kryptonite Man and the Legion of Super-Villains. As Lana Lang, Jimmy Olsen, and Krypto fall in the chaos, the true villain emerges: a malevolent Mxyzptlk, whose transformation forces Superman to use the Phantom Zone projector to stop him—only to be left broken, sacrificing his powers with gold Kryptonite and vanishing from the world’s sight. Written by Alan Moore and illustrated with timeless precision by Curt Swan, with inks by Kurt Schaffenberger and Murphy Anderson, and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1987 issue stands as a pivotal moment in Superman’s mythos, its haunting cover by Swan and Saviuk capturing the gravity of the fall.

In the quiet aftermath of Superman’s disappearance, Lois Lane Elliot recounts to Tim Crane the chilling final days before he vanished—when Bizarro turned deadly, killing Pete Ross and orchestrating a brutal attack on the Daily Planet with a group of Metallos. As Superman retreats to the Fortress of Solitude with his closest allies, a shadowy plot unfolds: Brainiac, inhabiting Lex Luthor’s body, recruits the Kryptonit-Man, while the Legion of Super-Heroes arrives to honor the Stählernen with a statue on a day that feels heavier than any other.

In a chilling twist, Brainiac—having taken over Lex Luthor’s body—launches a relentless assault on the Fortress of Solitude, aided by the Kryptonit-Man and the Legion of Super-Villains. As Lana Lang, Jimmy Olsen, and Krypto fall in the battle, the true mastermind emerges: Mr. Mxyzptlk, now dangerously corrupted. With the help of the Phantom Zone projector, Superman confronts the malevolent trickster, who is ultimately torn apart across dimensions. Haunted by death and burdened by guilt, Superman chooses to take his powers from gold Kryptonite, vanishing from the world as the hero the planet once knew.
