Superman Og Fredsbomben (Superman and the Peace Bomb) is a large prestige format 48-page graphic novel published by Interpresse in 1990. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Superman in 1988, DC Comics made the incentive that the overseas publishers were allowed to produce a story with the Man of Steel. Only Danish editors from Interpresse attended the call. Danish translator Niels Søndergaard wrote the original story featuring Superman visiting five capitals from the Scandivia (Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm, Helsinki and Amsterdam) in a plot to devise a Lex Luthor plan to control all Nuclear Bombs in Europe. The young danish Teddy Kristiansen provides the artwork in his first major work in comics. The album is drawn in a charming cartoony style, and with a narration, that recalls the work of Frank Miller on Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. It was the first and only Superman graphic novel produced outside the USA with DC permission and agreement. It was never republished in USA.
Synopis
A journalist, peace activist, Superman, robots, an arms dealer and the superpowers intelligence services are some of the main characters in the tangled game about peace bomb, which is said to neutralize all nuclear weapons.
A peace activist named Theodore travels to Scandinavia and Holland to promote a new invention called the Peace Monger, which turns radioactive material into lead. Lois Lane and Clark Kent are covering the tour and it turns out Theodore is actually a robot controlled by Lex Luthor.
While Teddy Kristiansen was given a free rein as long as he drew the S on Superman’s chest precisely, writer Niels Søndergaard clashed with DC over Clark Kent’s choice of changing room, toilets were choosen by the author because phone booths are open in Europa, it was logical choice, but DC complained.
The album is famous to address the destruction caused by Superman during his Scandinavian sojourn: Frogner Park in Oslo and the Sibelius Monument in Helsinki were demolished in a Superman fight. DC estipulated that Superman would rebuild everything, so in the end Lois Lane says: ‘Superman is not here because he is rebuilding everything that was smashed.’
