| Synopsis1 = In issue #3, after Lois gains Superman's powers for 24 hours, Superman and Super-Lois meet Samson, a time-traveler from the year 2061, and Atlas, another superman of myth. Together, the two defeat an evolved dinosaur dictator who is attacking Metropolis. After returning the dino-man to the center of the Earth, Samson gives Lois some ''Radioactive Crown Jewels'' he "borrowed" from the Ultra-Sphinx. Samson shows Superman a Daily Planet paper with the headline "Superman Dead", taunting him while flirting with Lois. After the Ultra-Sphinx shows up demanding the return of the jewels, Lois is threatened with death unless the Sphinx's question is answered correctly: "What happens when the unstoppable force meets the immovable object?" After a moment, Superman correctly answers: "They surrender". After this incident, at Samson and Atlas' insistence on a feat of strength in order to "win" Lois, Superman arm-wrestles both strongmen, breaking their arms in the process. Superman and Lois later attend Lois' birthday party at the bottom of the sea, and, still later, the two kiss on the moon. By 3:30 MPT the super-powers leave Lois and she falls asleep, before Superman can ask his own, very important question. The newspaper headline "Superman Dead" is revealed to have none other than Metropolis' finest journalist on the byline: Clark Kent!

Synopsis for "Sweet Dreams, Superwoman..."

Lois Lane drinks the potion given to grant her the same powers as Superman.[1]

In Metropolis, the Subterranosauri have resurfaced to attack. The warrior, Krull, leads the way. Jimmy Olsen uses his Signal Watch to summon Superman to the rescue. Chronal travelers, Samson and Atlas, appear to stop the invasion as well as woo Lois Lane.

In the underworld, they return Krull to the Subterrani leader for punishment. Samson continues to woo Lois Lane by gifting her a necklace of Radioactive Crown Jewels. He offers to take her on a date through time from the dinosaurs age to the future. Superman pulls Samson aside asking him why he pursues his woman. Samson shows him a newspaper showing the headline, "Superman Dead" and tells him she won't be his for long. Suddenly the Ultra-Sphinx appears wanting the "Jewels of Atom-Hotep". Samson explains Superman must complete 12 feats. He has already created life, escaped from the underverse, and overthrown the tyrant sun. The Sphinx asks a riddle to Superman, "What happens when an unstoppable force meats and un-moveable object?" Superman responds with, "they surrender," which the Sphinx finds acceptable and releases Lois Lane.

Superman agrees to offer a feat of strength against Atlas and Samson to win over Lois. He arm wrestles them both at the same time and breaks their arms.

Superman and Lois fly to the moon and embrace in a deep and romantic kiss.

Superman and Lois sit on a rooftop. Lois falls asleep as Superman asks her, "Lois, will you...". Superman then notices she is asleep and instead tucks her into bed.
