Reign of the Supermen #63: The Ghost of Superman-Future

Source: Superman vol.1 #416 (1985)
Type: FutureNo relation to A Christmas Carol aside from the title's reference, but now's as good a time as any to mention this future version of Superman who, a hundred years on, used his best friend Luthor's holographic projector to send himself a message back in time. That message: To delay the capture of Luthor for a bit. During that bit, Luthor saves the life of a young man who would later become the psychiatrist who would cure him of his evil.

Of course, the issue's first story tells us the tale without Future Superman's ghostly intervention and Lex still manages to save the boy from drowning while Superman's distracted so... He creates paradoxes just for fun?
Terrifying.
