Superman #323 "The Man With the Self-Destruct Mind" (1978)

The is the first of two consecutive pages from Superman #323, which features a new Superman villian, the Atomic Skull. During this period, I absolutely loved the stories written by Martin Pasko...which mainly revolved around Superman's fight against a vast crime organization called SKULL. This particular page reveals their evil plan to cover the entire stratosphere with kryptonite fragments by way of the kryptonite pipeline.
