In "Solomon Grundy Wins on a Monday!", Lex Luthor unleashes the colossal Galactic Golem, a being forged from galactic matter and driven by an insatiable hunger for hyper-stellar energy. With Superman playing a delicate game of deception, Luthor must team up with his archenemy to divert the unstoppable creature from Earth—before the planet becomes just another fuel source in its cosmic rampage. Written by Len Wein and brought to life with classic precision by artists Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson, this 1983 classic features a cover by Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia.
