Ambush Bug, clad in work coveralls, removes the ?Superman? logo from this cover, leaving it discarded on the ground. He replaces it with a green-lettered, self-painted ?Ambush Bug? banner ? much to the displeasure of the Man of Steel.

Superman must contend with ?John Doe?, an escaped convict equipped with sonic-blaster-cuffs supplied by The Monitor, and inexplicable bouts of temporary amnesia.

Elliot S! Maggin and Dick Giordano discuss the upcoming SUPERMAN #400.

Ambush Bug sets up a detective agency and is interviewed by Clark Kent.

  • Ambush Bug Starring in Action Comics - Logo design and letters credit from http://kleinletters.com/.
  • Meet John Doe! - Non-advertised, pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths mini-series four-panel-sequence-cameo by The Monitor (only hands shown with voice). Next issue blurb in the final panel tells of the return to these pages of classic Superman artist Wayne Boring.
  • - Between pages 13 and 14 of previous story.
  • Police Blotter - Eight pages of zany non-sequiturs with Ambush Bug, highlighted by his exposing Clark Kent as Superman, and arresting a car for overtime parking ? then depositing the car on the steps of police headquarters (with a note) as all good superheroes are wont to do. There is also a one-page origin sequence for Ambush Bug, ending with a panel stating "Please Stand By We Are Experiencing Technical Difficulties".
