Superman 1: Before Truth

by Gene Luen Yang (Author), Jr. Romita, John (Illustrator), Klaus Janson (Illustrator), Scott Hanna (Illustrator)

Published: October 4, 2016​ | DC Comics

Superman is going through some changes. First, there’s his new “solar flare” power, which releases tremendous amounts of energy but leaves him functionally human—fragile, vulnerable, prone to hangovers—for 24 hours.

But an even bigger change is coming. A new company called Hordr has sprung up, and its business is secrets. If you have one that you want to keep hidden, Hordr can control you—and no one has a bigger secret than Clark Kent.

Now, Hordr is threatening to expose Clark’s alter ego unless he does everything they command. Will Superman play into the hands of blackmailers to keep his loved ones out of danger? And if the truth that Superman has been hiding is exposed, will it set him free—or ruin his life?

Superman 2: Return to Glory

Published: March 14, 2017| DC Comics

Life as Superman knew it is no more. He’s lost his identity as Clark Kent, his job and almost all of his powers. But he’s still Superman. And, powers or no powers, he’s determined to uncover the mastermind who’s taken everything from him.

Superman’s investigation leads him to an underground super-fight club called Mythbrawl, which he joins to make ends meet while he tracks down Hodor_Root, leader of the crime syndicate that leverages secrets for power. Yet he soon discovers the real threat comes from Hodor_Root’s “father,” Vandal Savage, and his orchestrated campaign to reclaim the comet that granted him immortality aeons ago. If Savage succeeds, he’ll grow powerful beyond imagining. And with the comet being drawn closer to Earth, Savage’s “spawn” popping up all over the world and most of his allies incapacitated, there’s no way a powerless Superman can persevere…unless he taps into the one thing that, win or lose, will take its toll on Krypton’s last son.

Superman: Savage Dawn

Published: August 1, 2017 | DC Comics

Vandal Savage can afford to be patient he’s immortal, thanks to fragments from a comet he came into contact with more than 40,000 years ago & a comet that he has since spent eons and spilled blood trying to bring back to Earth. A comet that, should he reclaim it, will grant him untold might.

Savage’s patience is about to pay off. Through his operatives, he&;s taken Superman’s powers; and, indirectly, his secret identity to siphon the collective strength of the Justice League and generate the ultimate tractor beam. As the beam draws Savage&;s long-lost comet all the way back to Earth, unsuspecting souls bearing the immortal’s genetic signature are suddenly infused with maddening might, while their father’s already-incredible power exponentially increases.

Only a handful of heroes, led by Wonder Woman and a depowered Superman, stand between Savage and his comet, and soon even they won’t be enough, that is, unless Superman taps into a deadly element from his past to deny his immortal adversary a future of eternal power.
