| * July 5-6: Lois Lane meets "Bronco" Bill Starr, the transformed Comet the Super-Horse, and falls for him. Later, after Bill becomes the Super-Horse once more, Lois is transformed by the evil sorcerer Malador into a super-horse, and she and Comet the Super-Horse become an item, though Malador's spell prevents Comet from speaking with her telepathically, so he's unaware that the super-filly is really Lois. After Comet and Lois save Superman from a green kryptonite meteor, Superman realizes that Lois has transformed into a horse. Circe contacts Superman from the past, telling him how to break Malador's spell, and Lois becomes first a centaur and then a human again after being exposed to Circe's cure, but remembers nothing about her time as a super-horse. //Note: "Bronco" Bill Starr is mistakenly called "Bronco" Bill Biron in this story. Malador is mistakenly called Maldor.// ["The Unbreakable Spell," Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane #92 (May, 1969)] | * July 5-6: Lois Lane meets "Bronco" Bill Starr, the transformed Comet the Super-Horse, and falls for him.

| * July 20-25: When Superman's lifeless body falls to earth, he is once more thought to be dead by the world, having been killed by a space pirate named Motan the Ruthless. Some of Superman's body parts -- his eyes, ears, hands, lungs, and heart -- are removed from his corpse so they can be transferred to a worthy person. Batman is chosen, but he declines. Lex Luthor steals the body parts and auctions them off to the underworld. Four high-level underworld figures known as the Big Four Syndicate win the bid, and Luthor performs organ transplant surgery on them, but keeps the heart for himself.
