Comment(s):

In this story, it is recounted that "Superman" saved the world by closing off a rift and creating the Landbridge that exists between Canada and Europe.
It is not definitely revealed that the Superman shown here is the actual Superman or just a legend and the costume worshiped by the Apes may just be a movie costume and not the real Super-Suit.
