I've been browsing a fairly large collection of magazines for this thread.
Along that way I found one of those rare villains that did not possess kryptonite, or use magic, or possess true superpower, who nonetheless gave Kara a surprisingly worthy challenge for her time.
I figure showing an abridged version of her encounter with this man will provide the chance to showcase a wide range of skill, resourcefulness, and ingenuity from both characters.
As this engagement filled the majority of 3 comics in its original incarnation, the decompressed format I've been using won't SEEM all that abridged.
Nevertheless, believe me when I say that it is, and that anyone who happens upon the original story will be able to confirm that themselves.
I'll be attempting this as a serial of sorts; translating material dense pre-1990s comics this way requires more effort than the average person might think...

It should be apparent by now, but, virtually anytime I write
"Image" + "[number]" + "of" + "[number]"
what is being shown is a collection telling one story with images shown in succession.
Context is given by what precedes.

At the beginning of this thread, I featured YouTube "mirrors" --
clips to reflect in human terms what a comic feat might look like in real life, and/or the kind of rather impressive person it would require.
Here's an example of a person who reflects "Level 200" from msn.com today (Tuesday, July 28, 2009).
She is a heroine in her right, as anyone who researches her backstory might discover:

Hmm!
Posting the above reminds me that Kara's CAPE had some fairly remarkable properties for a mere piece of clothing.
There she is merely about to use it as insulating material, in order to break shocking current.
That can actually be done in many cases with ordinary clothing.
The 2nd and 3rd of the next 4 images will show something normal material can NOT do:
