Crisis On Infinite Earths - Prophecy of the Demon-Plague!
Because of the Crisis, the Creeper, in his identity as TV newsman Jack Ryder, begins giving air time to the cranks and crackpots who claim to be behind the strange forces signaling the end of the world. Most are harmless — however, one of them uses his media exposure to form a psychic conduit between an ancient demon and the viewers of Ryder's show. Together, Superman and the Creeper defeat the demon.
