“The Final Days of Superman Part 3: Dazed and Confused”

In "The Final Days of Superman Part 3: Dazed and Confused," Superman grapples with a shocking truth as he confronts the reality of his own mortality, sharing it with Supergirl during a tense reunion at the Fortress. As he tries to protect her from the D.E.O., he's forced to reckon with her choices—and with the growing unrest in Metropolis, where a man claiming to be Clark Kent unleashes chaos at the Daily Planet. Wonder Woman arrives, furious that Superman kept his condition from her, adding emotional weight to a moment already charged with urgency. Written by Peter J. Tomasi and illustrated by Paul Pelletier, with inks by Sandra Hope-Archer, colors by Tomeu Morey, and letters by Rob Leigh, the issue’s dramatic tone is matched by Karl Kerschl’s striking cover.
