The Superman Family #169

In "Target of the Tarantula [Part 1]," Lois Lane finds herself pursued by a mysterious vigilante known as the Tarantula, who claims to be cleaning up crime—but with methods that cross the line into lethal justice. As she uncovers the truth behind his actions, she must navigate a web of danger involving the Masher Mob, the enigmatic Frank Lester, and his sister Mabel, all while Superman watches from the shadows, unsure whether the Tarantula is hero or threat.

In "Part 2: Lois Lane's Phantom Partner," Lois Lane teams up with Superman as they unravel the mystery behind the masked vigilante Tarantula, whose identity leads them to a shocking revelation—Tarantula is not who he seems, but the spirit of the late Agent Simon Cross, bound to protect the legacy of his fallen partner, Gerold Lester. With the line between justice and vengeance blurring, Lois and Superman must confront a ghost from the past who walks the shadows in search of truth.
