ACTION COMICS - #350 (1967 - VG+)
š„Ā CLASSIC SILVER AGE SUPERMAN!Ā
While on vacation in France, Perry White joins a group of spelunkers in exploring a cave. The cave collapses and the explorers are rescued by Superman but then they discover the skeleton of a prehistoric man wearing a Superman costume.
In order to solve the costumed skeleton mystery, Superman goes back into prehistoric time. Once he arrives he discovers that the sun is Red and he loses his superpowers. In the meantime Superman runs into a prehistoric thug named Guarr who is exploiting his village by with holding water in exchange for various personal items. Though Guarr's savage upbringing affords him greater strength and durability than the powerless Superman in battle, the man of steel is able to briefly hold his ground with his wrestling techniques. Unfortunately, he is knocked out when he drops his guard and a prehistoric beast arrives on the scene. Unconscious, Superman is rescued by a beautiful young woman named Virra, who becomes infatuated with him.
Taking him to her family's cave, Virra nurses Superman back to health and tells him of their plight. Superman discovers the source of Guarrs water and shows the villagers how to build an irrigation system so they can access the water more readily. He also encourages them to rise up against Guarr and overwhelm him which they do with little difficulty.
Superman is then rescued by the arrival of a Superman robot K-31, the man of steel bidding farewell to Virra as he and his robot return back to the present time, the robot being disguised as Clark Kent. Realizing he has left his costume behind, Superman surmises that it was found by Guarr and he was the Skeleton they had discovered in the cave at the beginning of this story.
