In "The Goddess from Hell!", Jimmy wakes up with no memory of who he is—only a strange signal watch in his pocket, now sitting in a pawn shop. The mystery deepens as a flashback reveals how Superman once gave him that very watch, hinting at a connection far beyond a simple gift. Written by Paul Kupperberg and brought to life by José Delbo’s expressive art, with inks by Joe Giella and colors by Jerry Serpe, this 1982 tale from The Superman Family #218 is a gripping blend of identity, mystery, and the quiet heroism of a man who may not even know his own name. The cover by Ross Andru and Frank Giacoia captures the eerie tone with a striking, otherworldly figure looming over a cityscape.
