![]() ![]() On a farm outside of Pittsdale, Lois Lane surprises her parents by tossing out all her Superman stuff. We’ve seen Perry avoiding his wife’s calls lately, so I guess he’s going to tell the counselor what’s up. Meanwhile, Perry White is at a marriage counselor but he’s alone, and tells the counselor his wife doesn’t know about the visit. Superman has to deal with the illusion to prevent people from getting trampled in their hysteria, so Luthor gets away. The ray causes everyone inside the building to see the same hallucination … a gigantic Luthor preparing to smash the Galaxy Building. Clark quickly changes to Superman to pursue, but doesn’t notice Luthor hitting the building with a ray before he flies off. ![]() Luthor dives out the window and his automated battle suit flies in to pick him up. ![]() (Superman did feel a certain amount of guilt for contributing to Lexor’s destruction last issue, but he seems to have gotten past that.) Luthor tells Clark (who he doesn’t know is Superman) that he’s planning to make the Man of Steel suffer in unimaginable ways. Clark realizes Luthor has some kind of mental block that’s preventing him from admitting that his own attack on Superman triggered the backlash that blew up the planet. Luthor explains how Superman pursued him to Lexor (where Luthor’s wife and kid lived) and attacked him, causing the entire planet to blow up. He phases into Clark Kent’s office (tossing Justin Moore out on his ass) and tells Clark he has a front page story for him. A guard feels the same way, but knows it really is Luthor when he phases right through the wall. Luthor is heading into the Galaxy Building, where Perry White almost recognizes him but figures Luthor wouldn’t be bold enough to just stroll right in. This one starts with Lex Luthor’s battle-suit flying around Metropolis by itself, freaking out citizens. Superman #386 – “Luthor Lashes Back” – Cary Bates/Curt Swan/Dave Hunt ![]()
