☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "A Tale of Two Titans," Superman faces a dire test of resolve as Mongul unleashes a brutal quartet—Darling, O.M.A.C., Apollo, and the transformed Lightray, now Black Razor—against the Phaelosians. With hope as his only weapon, Superman divides his team to tackle multiple fronts, leading to tense confrontations and unforeseen challenges across the battlefield. Written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson and illustrated by Will Conrad and Brent Peeples, with colors by Lee Loughridge and letters by Dave Sharpe, the issue's dynamic art and escalating stakes are perfectly captured on a cover by Steve Beach.
In "A Tale of Two Titans," Clark Kent learns compassion from his mother Martha in Smallville, while across the galaxy, Mongul is shaped by his mother’s ruthless lessons—two boys raised in vastly different worlds, their paths destined to collide. With familiar faces like Lana Lang, Pete Ross, and Jonathan Kent watching from the sidelines, the story explores how upbringing defines the heroes and villains we become.
In "Warworld Revolution Part One," Superman rallies the Phaelosians in a desperate bid to overthrow Mongul’s tyranny, scoring a crucial early win by defeating Teacher and freeing Manchester Black—only to capture the enigmatic Orphan in the process. With momentum building, the rebellion faces a devastating new threat as Mongul crushes a United Planets world and issues an ultimatum, forcing the resistance to confront both the scale of Mongul’s power and the fragile unity of their cause.
In "Warworld Revolution Part Two," Superman and his allies—including Manchester Black, Midnighter, Steel, and Orphan—rally to free Enchantress from Mother’s clutches, but their mission stirs the wrath of the prison’s keeper. As Mongul attempts to revive Lightray as a weapon, the fragile alliance faces new threats from Warzoons and the lingering echoes of Orphan’s past, all while the fate of Warworld hangs in the balance.
In "Warworld Revolution Part Three," Superman leads a fractured team across the war-torn landscape of Warworld, where hope is as fragile as the alliances holding it together. With O.M.A.C., Apollo, and the newly transformed Black Razor unleashed by Mongul, and Natasha Irons, Leonath, and Orphan facing off against Teacher and the enigmatic Darling, the stakes rise as each mission tests the limits of loyalty, courage, and what it means to fight for freedom.
Under the shadow of Warworld’s merciless regime, Byla-Esh shares a haunting tale with a group of young Phaelosians—of the first Warzoon who rose to power, becoming the original Mongul, and the dark legacy that followed. As the distant thunder of Mongul’s forces echoes through the ruins, the story unfolds like a myth whispered in the dark.
In a world where Clark Kent is gone, Lois Lane, Supergirl, and Steel race against time to save Thao-La as her powers threaten to consume her. With help from Kelex and the unexpected arrival of Steel [Natasha Irons], they must track down the rare Genesis energy—only to discover they’re not the only ones hunting it.
In a world where Clark Kent is gone, Lois Lane and John Henry Irons race against time to save Thao-La using the powerful Genesis energy—only to be ambushed by Conduit, who strikes without warning and seizes the precious fragment. With tensions rising and the stakes higher than ever, the fate of Thao-La hangs in the balance as allies old and new must decide how far they’ll go to protect what’s left.
In *Superman: Warworld Apocalypse*, Superman confronts betrayal and tyranny on the brutal arena-world of Warworld, where Mongul’s reign is threatened by a desperate resistance. As Midnighter, Manchester Black, and Enchantress battle to free Apollo, O.M.A.C., and Lightray from Mongul’s control, Superman must face his own unraveling loyalty—while Natasha Irons, Leonath, and Orphan race against time to seize the Star Forge engine from Teacher and Darling. With the Justice League’s echoes haunting the battlefield and Warworld’s fate hanging in the balance, every choice could be the last.
