Title: Does somebody remember this story ?
Post by: AlbertoM on January 05, 2006, 01:46:27 PM
Hello,

I hope this is the right place to ask a question like this...

I remember a Superman story I read in my childhood. It was about a man who could, as it turns out in the end, see the future in his TV, until Superman "repaired" it.

Can anyone point me to the issue where this appeard ?

Thanks,
Alberto

to help narrow it down a bit, when was your childhood? roughly which year or years would this comic would have been published?

Well, that's part of the problem. I grew up in Germany and this was a reprint of an US-issue. I read it around 1978, but the orginal could have been much older, as was often the case back then.

The story outline seems vaguely familiar, and it may possibly be a mid-1970s story or thereabouts.

In my opinion, it sounds like the sort of thing Cary Bates would write.

I'lll have to do a bit of research and hopefully get back with a positive result.

It seems familiar...
I'll help you, too. It's a good excuse to see again my old Superman comics from the '70s!
