Description: DC Comics Superman Title - "The Man Who Slept the World Away" Volume - 1 Issue - # 294 Date - December 1975 Synopsis IF YOSuperman is left as the only inhabitant of Earth except for Brain Storm, who has dreamed all others away. Clark Kent is seen broadcasting the news that everyone has disappeared from the face of the earth. He explains that he and Superman were off the planet on a mission only to return to find everyone gone. The phone rings and a voice explains that the fate of mankind hangs in the balance unless his instructions are followed. The voice mentions that the presence of Clark and Superman have affected His plans. The voice is unaware that Clark and Superman are one and the same. Clark is then supposedly murdered in Metropolis leaving only Superman on Earth. Superman discovers that the voice belongs to Brain Storm, a Justice League Foe. Brain Storm explains that he induced everyone into dreaming that they are in another dimension with the help of his scientific helmet. Brain Storm explains that he did this in order to increase power to his helmet through the use of Stellar energy. He got rid of everyone on earth because their brain waves would interfere with his plans to absorb Stellar power from a passing Quasar that will soon arrive close to Earth. Since Superman is an alien and not human, his brain waves would not interfere Brain Storm absorbing the Quasar's energy. Superman then distracts Brain Storm by dressing up as Clark Kent. While he is attacking Clark, Brain Storm misses the opportunity to absorb his intended energy. Superman adjusts the helmet and returns everyone back to earth. As he is being hauled away, Brain Storm mentions that he is off the hook for Clark's murder but Superman explains that he will still have to face a judge for 4 billion counts of kidnapping.IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE PICTURES, PLEASE ASK I AM NOT A COMIC BOOK GRADER, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THESE OLD COMICS WOULD GRADE.
