Notes
- Published bi-monthly by Superman, Inc.
- This issue is reprinted in The Superman Archives Vol. 3.
- "The Dukalian Spy Ring" is reprinted in Superman: From the 30's to the 70's and Superman: From the 30's to the 80's.
- At the end of this story, Lang's Sky-Sub is still under development by the U.S. Navy.
- In Earth-Two's version of the months leading up to WWII, the Axis Powers included: Baralia, Bulgonia, Dukalia, Luxor, Napkan, Nastonia, Nural, Oxnalia, Syronia, Thoria, Toran, Twerpany, and others. After 1941-12, many of these countries dropped from the scene.
- "The Invisible Luthor" is the mad scientist's fifth big and evil scheme. His prior appearance was in Superman #5 and he next appears in Superman #12. In this episode, for the first time, Luthor is bald, unlike his previous Earth-Two appearances.
- On Earth-Two Clark Kent worked at the Daily Star under George Taylor while Perry White remained a reporter and Superman fought a red haired Luthor. However, there was a close hypertime reality (Earth-Two-A) which regularly interacted with Earth-Two resulting in distortions such as (but not limited to) Clark Kent working for the Daily Planet under editor Perry White and/or Superman fighting a bald Luthor.
