Intergang launches a devastating attack on Superman. Using many different weapons. Kryptonite, red solar radiation projectors and super-high pitched sonic devices.
Superman is very seriously hurt and out of commission for a month. Plus, even worse, the attack on Kline's office was successful in stealing all the kryptonite the good doctor had.
Plus Intergang filmed the event and put it on YouTube. The world's criminals now know about Superman's vulnerability to red solar energy and high pitched sonics. Something Superman had kept secret all these years.
In his month out of commission Clark and Lois set out to design a better, more defensive suit. Specifically one that addresses the 3 weapons used against Superman.
Go at it - how would Clark and Lois build a better Superman suit.
