![]() ![]() Master Jailer says Clark Kent is his real target, but he had to get Superman out of the way to keep him from protecting (or avenging) Clark. As Superman stumbles inside, he gets a radio message from Master Jailer, who’s tracking him by the kryptonite radiation. As the kryptonite begins to affect him, Superman flies weakly to his Fortress of Solitude, where he can barely lift the giant key to put it in the lock. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, they aren’t harmless to him … the missiles impregnate his costume with kryptonite, fusing it right to his skin so he can’t remove it. Maser Jailer has modified the missiles and they lock onto Superman, who leads them up into space where they can detonate harmlessly. Superman hears about the launch and goes to stop the missiles before they cause a catastrophe. Master Jailer goes to a missile silo and launches some nukes. Master Jailer has been planning revenge on Superman (who he doesn’t know is actually Clark) for a while, studying up on Krypton and even recording the light from Krypton’s explosion when it finally reached Earth. One of the people watching the news is Carl Draper (Master Jailer) and he’s still hung up on Lana, wondering why she’s going out with a loser like Clark. This one starts with Clark Kent and Lana Lang doing their nightly newscast (and we learn that former sportscaster Steve Lombard is now a used-car salesman, which seems perfect for him).
