Lois & Clark - A Bolt from the Blue

Superman Sunday takes us back to that time a biodegradable golf club investor was imbued with the powers of Superman. Lightning has had an interesting role in Superman’s history and, like Kryptonite and magic, has plagued him in different ways from time to time. Here, a portion of Superman‘s (Dean Cain) power was transferred to the suicidal William Wallace Webster Waldecker (Leslie Jordan) when the pair are struck by lightning in a Metropolis cemetery where Lois (Teri Hatcher) and Clark were looking for clues as to what happened to the body of Lex Luthor. The power transfer is witnessed by Lex’s mad scientist Dr. Gretchen Kelly (Denise Crosby) but goes unnoticed by both Lois and Clark.

Action Comics #1062

Metropolis has been Bizarro-fied. Everyone within the city has become a version of Bizarro, including Superman. Although he’s able to shake it off and return to normal, Superman is left with a city gone mad. We get a cameo from Batman and a couple other heroes doing what they can to help, but Action Comics #1062 is centered squarely around a Superman story where he tires himself out in small victories saving the citizens from themselves over and over again, but in terms of reversing what has been done he continues to fail to set things right.

Adventures of Superman - The Haunted Lighthouse

Superman Sunday takes us back to the 1950s and a strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. In the show’s second episode, Jim Olson (Jack Larson), noticeably never called Jimmy, visits some family on Moose Island only to become increasingly concerned with their behavior and odd occurrences on the otherwise empty island including an abandoned lighthouse which appears to be back in operation. The first-half of the episode is built entirely around Jim, who finally contacts Clark Kent (George Reeves) at The Daily Planet for assistance bringing both Clark and Superman to the island to investigate the odd occurrences.
