Superman #295 (January 1976) established that the costume seen in Komandi was indeed Superman's, and that Earth A.D. is an alternate future for Earth-One, distinct from that of the Legion of Super-Heroes.


I actually never read this one. But it sounds like a fun sequel to the story in KAMANDI 29, where a cult of apes worship a Superman costume. And in the KAMANDI 29 story, I loved the mystery and ambiguity the story left, that it could either be a Superman costume that the apes only believed belonged to Superman, a fictitious character that down the generations they came to believe was real, or that it might actually be the real Superman's costume.








The SUPERMAN 295 story sounds like an interesting reversal, where Superman travels to Kamandi's future. Although KAMANDI 29 ended so perfectly, it would have to be one heck of a story to do it one better.



Pages 2 and 3 of issue 29, where the apes Kamandi meets have carved Superman's legend as they know it into a giant monument, in comic book form.
