Superman 282 page 30 by Ernie Chan

Ernie, draws Mr. Lonely
I have no Ernie art I own
Nam-Ek's lonely, He's Mr. Smelly
Wish I had someone to cure criminal

He's a Chua, mistyped it Chua
A name from home though no wish of his own
That Nam-Ek's lonely, He's Mr. Lonely
And drifts out as wood, blown up home

Drifter, he lives forever
It gets no better in this grail
He's been on Krypton, yeah, on Krypton
Oh, how I wonder how is it he failed

Now find a Super, and girly Super
A day explode though no wish of his own
That Nam-Ek's lonely, He's Mr. Lonely
I wish that he would go back home

It's great to see Chua's blue pencils survive under the inks. Wow, another dark story. DC in the early Bronze really did have a distinct tone.

Nice!

So, Nam-Ek has the top of a giant bell pepper on his head? Wild! So cool to see a Chan Superman story. I clearly remember him doing many Batmanand/or Detective issues, but if I ever knew he had drawn any superman stories within the Superman or Action titles, I've since forgotten. What a great Supergirl image, too!

Very cool Superman page. I've always enjoyed Ernie Chan's work on Superman and this is a gorgeous example of his work. Love that opening scene of Krypton exploding. And the idea of this story--that one man survived the explosion because he was immortal but was stranded to drift forever in space--is haunting. Love that final panel of Supergirl marching away from Superman bothered by his story. Great pick-up!

Great cosmic page!
