Almost from the very beginning of his long career, Superman has employed dummies and robots of Clark Kent and Superman, as well as of his loved ones and closest friends, to help him carry out his customary super-tasks and protect the secret of his dual identity. The greatest of these so-called Super-Robots, which are housed both at the Fortress of Solitude and behind a secret panel in Clark Kent’s Metropolis apartment, are immensely sophisticated and complex, possessing mighty super-powers and capable of human emotion, independent thought, and autonomous action. In the early years, this was not the case and the complex robots that exist more recently are the product of a gradual evolution spanning many years. Notable Superman robots include Ajax (a.k.a. Wonder-Man), Adam Newman, Powerman, Superman Robot Z and MacDuff. Superman later retires his robots because of deleterious effects from pollution in the earth's atmosphere (first documented in WF No. 202, May 1971: "Vengeance of the Tomb-Thing!").
