Superman is patrolling the city looking for someone to help. Suddenly he hears someone calling for help.
"Someone please help!"
Superman flies to the source of the call. He approaches a baker standing outside his store.
"What can I do?"
"Oh Superman! Thank heaven you are here! I need your help. Can you help me deliver these cakes?"
"Of course."
After several minutes, Superman delivers the cakes. After that, he rescues a cat from a tree, foils a bank robbery, and helps an old lady cross the street. He stands on a building satisfied.
"Well all in a day's work."
He is about to go home when suddenly he hears another voice calling him.
"I know that voice," Superman says to himself.
He flies to STAR Labs, a scientific organization dedicated to researching medicine and science that can benefit mankind. He visits Emil Hamilton, a scientist friend of his.
"Hello Emil. How can I help?"
"Thanks for getting our message Superman. I need your help. Our intel found this in Iceland."
Emil brings out his tablet and shows Superman a video of a giant robotic body. He gives Superman a paper copy of the photo.
"What is it?"
"Well sources were able to gather intel and we found out that in the 1950s there was an incident involving a nuclear warhead that nearly destroyed a town. However, this "Iron Giant" as they called it, helped prevent the machine from reaching the town and sacrificed itself."
"So what do you want me to do?" Superman asks.
"I want you to find this machine so that we can protect it from others," Emil responds.
"I will get it for you."
"Are you sure you won't need any backup?"
"I will be fine Emil."
"Well then, good luck."
Superman flies to Iceland. When he arrives in the town a lot of the folks are surprised by his appearance.
"[Is that Superman]" One person asks.
"[What is he doing here?]" Another Icelandic asks.
Superman approaches a man and asks him in Icelandic if he has seen a robot. The man shakes his head. He enters a bar to look for answers. He spots a lonely man sitting at a bar. Superman approaches the man who is surprised by him.
"Hello there. Mind if I sit down," Superman says.
"Y-y-y-you're Superman!"
"Yes I am and you are?"
"My name is Hogarth Hughes. I am from America."
"Really? What are you doing here?"
"Looking for someone," Hogarth says.
"I am also looking for someone. Well more like something."
"What would that be?" Hogarth asks getting another bottle of beer.
Superman shows Hogarth a picture of the robot. Hogarth quickly snatches the photo from his hands and looks at the robot. Tears start streaming down his face.
"What is it?"
"I have spent my entire life looking for him."
"I am sorry. I bet he was important to you."
Hogarth turns around and looks at Superman.
"He was family."
"I understand. That's why I was wondering if you could help me find it."
Hogarth puts his jacket on and grabs snow gear.
"I thought you would never ask," Hogarth says.
