The only downside to this ish is the art in some places is pretty bad! Besides that the whole ish is a testorone induced comedy! I mean even President Reagan and Gorbachev make a special funny appearance on one page! So even as a historical note it adds to the unique wackiness of this story.

Dr. Stratos believes himself to be a god from Olympia and forces people to serve him like a god in his castle. He controls the weather with a space satellite, making him ahead of his time, a geo-engineer of the 80s.

We see him murder a servant with lightning for attempting a coup, after banging one of his sex slaves she tries to murder him in his sleep but he freezes her to death.

Growing his ego he uses his weather weapon to threaten Reagon and Gorbachev, Reagon and Gorbachev agree with each other that only Superman can figure this one out. The President bit was funny how they drew them both, and how they thought it was his star wars program.

Comics today seem afraid to do goofy caricatures of leaders these days. I dont see any good parodies of Trump Biden Obama, there are plenty of things of Bush deservedly so. But frankly it seems like comics today are only capable of going as far as "metaphor" "symbolism", rather than a literal funny caricature like this.

So Supes is tested at all angles by Strato's weather weapons and survives each one barely. You really feel bad for Supes here getting hit with lightning milllions of times, getting piled with tons of ton of snow practically the saize of a mountain over him.

When he finally figures out Strato's game, he follows the particke beam from the space weapon which brings him to Stratos in his castle. Not fast enough to move Stratos away, the beam hits the both of them. Stratos goes on fire and falls off his ledge to disintegrate.

Obviously he really was the God stratos and the last oage shows him resurrected from the ashes.
