Superman in Machu Picchu

The superhero stops at the Inca site looking for Arion, a villain who has been messing up many places in the world. He meditates about the whereabouts of Arion and also about his mission of saving the world from destruction. And as usual, he can’t rest a bit; suddenly a bad guy, Subject-17, who proposes him to fight together against Arion, and also to destroy humanity, interrupts him. Superman doesn’t like the idea, and a big battle begins in Machu Picchu that ends with the bad guy loosing and revealing the whereabouts of Arion.

DC Comics published the story of the superhero in Machu Picchu, written by Kurt Busiek, on the September 12, 2007 issue. The fans of Superman recognized that Busiek has contributed to the comic with a deep look in the soul of the character, who in many chapters meditates about his intentions as a superhero. No wonder why he chose Machu Picchu as a location to meditate since it stands in a spectacular setting that challenges even the most imaginary minds.
