Stories

Invisible Mafia Part 5 · 22 pages
A criminal tries to sell an H-Dial to Gummy, a member of the Invisible Mafia, but the H-Dial fails to work when the Question interrupts the transaction looking for information about Red Cloud. Clark Kent is contacted by Melody Moore who tells him that she has been ordered by the Mayor to stop investigating the arson fires. Red Cloud attacks Superman.

Publisher’s description

Clark Kent draws closer to revealing a secret crime family that has operated for years in Metropolis, but the family’s enforcer—the mysterious Red Cloud—proves she’s a match for even the Man of Steel with an attack that leaves Superman breathless. Don’t miss the last-page shocker as we reveal the true face of the Red Cloud!
