Superman #1
Superman #1 (2017) kicks off a bold new chapter in the Man of Steel’s journey, with Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason launching a story where Superman’s long-standing conflict with the Eradicator reaches a pivotal end—literally, as Krypto emerges from the defeated villain, leaving him powerless. With the battle witnessed across Earth, Superman must finally go public, forcing Jon Kent to confront the reality of his identity as the new Superboy, now officially revealed to Batman and Wonder Woman. The issue’s striking cover by Doug Mahnke and Jaime Mendoza captures the weight of this turning point, while Patrick Gleason’s art and John Kalisz’s colors bring a grounded yet epic tone to the moment.
