Why this must be read: I find it hard to express exactly how much I love this story. I've always thought that Kal must have a power of seduction--not necessarily sexual seduction, but a way to make people love and want to protect him. It's the only reasonable explanation for the way people react to both Clark (mostly never really seeing what he is, but loving him intensely if they're in the inner circle) and Superman (such adoration, so little fear).
This story is a short, creepy vignette which nails that idea. Nails it cold. It gives me goosebumps every time.
