Report Filed November 14, 2001

Lex Luthor and the Legion of Doom have perfected teleportation device that has scattered the four core Superfriends to the four corners of the continental United States, also robbing them of their powers. We will need the help of the ordinary citizens to transport them back to their place of origins to regain their powers, and then bring them back to the Hall of Justice. Plastic Man, Flash and Hawkman have been helping out, but our efforts are stretched so thin that we've called on the world of Marvel Comics to help hold down the fort at the Hall of Justice. Professor Xavier and his crew have set up temporary residence in the Hall of Justice as well. Superman has been sent to the farthest southeast state - Florida - and needs to go back to Metropolis to regain his powers before returning to the Hall of Justice. We are asking citizens that come across Superman to speed him on his journey, moving from Geocache to Geocache, until he can regain his powers by visiting the cache closest to Metropolis, Illinois, home of the Giant Superman Statue. Currently, the cache closest to that zip code of 62960 is Superman, GC2E8B, but click here to be sure Once there, it will be the ordinary citizen's job to transport the Man of Steel to the cache Hall of Justice II (GC7FF0) to rejoin his friends before the Legion of Doom takes over the world. And of course, the more pictures by key landmarks taken, the better.

Superman traveled with CycleTrader back to St. Louis for repair of his information tag. While in St. Louis he visited the 'Continental Life Building' after which Metropolis was modeled. After his layover he is anxious to hit the road for home again.

Superman attempted to find temporary lodging in Metropolis today, but was unable to find his destination. 😟 He had no knowledge of alternate lodging. He thus returned to Carbondale to regroup and determine an appropriate course of action. The trip was not a total loss, however, as he did get to meet a larger version of himself and visit his own giftshop.

I've been tracking the Man Of Steel for over a year now, waiting for him to get to southern Illinois. It has finally happened thanks to the Krazy Cachers. Superman will soon be in Metropolis, most likely at the T.E. Bridge cache (GC2E8C).
