He murdered her. The Bloodlines McGuffin brought her back, which was a seperate storyline.

I'll have to look. I don't recall the details.

Yeah but, given the compressed nature of the story (at the end of the year-long event doesn't Lois say "it's been a rough couple of weeks" or something to that effect?) then by the time she came back to life, only a day or two had passed. Did anyone even realize she was gone or that a murder had taken place? I'll have to reread that annual.
