| 7 | |
| 8 | * AllForNothing: Sadly, Superman and Lex Luthor's combined efforts do nothing to alleviate the hunger situation in Africa, as Peace Corps worker Lee Ann Layton points out. |

| 14 | * MagicMusic: The Master has a keyboard on his chest that lets him play music that allows him to do anything he wants. |
| 15 | * PocketDimension: The Master tries to trap Superman within one by using his MagicMusic, but he escapes by flying faster than its portal can close. |
| 16 | * PowerfulAndHelpless: Superman and Lex Luthor are two of the most powerful characters in the DC universe (and Luthor is incredibly rich and smart, to boot) and they are completely unable to help with the famine. The comic's cover even had Supes [[HeroicBSOD on his knees and full of shell-shock misery]] as Luthor points this out. |
