Story Plot

Krypton is getting destroyed by an alien army. Kal-El gets there, but he can't stop the destruction of his own planet and the city where he was born, Kandor. Suddendly, Superman sees a young girl adrift in space. He then recognizes her as Kara Zor-El, his cousin. Seeing that now Krypton is completely destroyed, Superman rescues Kara and brings her to earth. But, as Kal arrives, he finds out that Lex Luthor created a weapon made only to kill him. John Corben was a journalist at Daily Planet, but in secret, he was also an assassin and a thief, he had just committed what he thought was the perfect crime. While fleeing from the scene of the crime, he suffered a near-fatal accident that mangled his body beyond repair. An elderly scientist, Professor Vale, happened to come upon him and used his scientific skill to transfer Corben's brain into a robotic body covered by a flesh-like artificial skin. The problem was that his power source, a capsule of uranium, would only last a day. Seeing this as an opportunity to use his newly found Kryptonite, Lex Luthor used it, instead of the uranium, as the power source, providing John an indefinite power supply. Will Superman stop the thing that was created for the sole purpose of destroying him?
