here's another one i'm trying to pin down, im guessing late sixties to mid seventies... Superman has lost all of his powers and become totally mortal. Despite this, he fashions a new superhero identity. Name totally slips my mind, im thinking it starts with O (omega, orion??) but the sense of the word is something closer to 'phoenix'. New costume has a circular logo (circle of triangles?) and the colors are different. Can anyone identify the issue?? Many thanks in advance... |

Hm. There are a lot of stories where Superman loses his powers, either voluntarily or by some dastardly plot, like in Superman #160 and much more recently, the Superman & the Legion of Superheroes arc. I don't seem to recall the story you're talking about though. The only thing that comes to mind is the Wonder-Man story, but that's not it.
Easy, miss. I've got you.
