“The Menace of the Mechanical Master!”

Superman hurls a massive vehicle overhead while calling out to Krypto — "Hit 'em hard, Krypto! The Mechanical Master's menaces can't beat us!" — as mechanical threats close in around him, a determined woman braces for action in an inset panel, and a green-costumed figure charges into the fray below, all brought to vivid life on this Ross Andru and Dick Giordano cover. At a full 68 ad-free pages, this February 1979 issue packs in stories featuring Superman, Superboy, Supergirl, Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane, Nightwing, and Flamebird — a genuine anthology of Kryptonian-adjacent adventure. Fans of the era's DC storytelling will find a lot to love here, with a Superman Movie Contest sweepstakes adding a fun period bonus on top.
