Synopsis

1. The Last laugh of Lady Lunar (written by Cary Buckett)When Metropolis was plagued by a villainess calling herself Lady Lunar, Batman and Superman noticed her powers resembled those of the Moonman. They went to Gotham City to interview NASA pilot Brice Rogers, who had been turned into the Moonman by passing through a comet's tail while orbitting the Moon.

She'd cancelled Stacy's appearance and ordered the capsule removed for study. The next night, Lady Lunar made her first appearance. She used her mesmerizing power to pick Dr. Klyburn's brain, and discovered the existence of the prototype bomb.Superman reasoned he could reflect solar rays from...
