Written by James Robinson and Sterling Gates, and brought to life by Eddy Barrows, Cafu, and Eduardo Pansica with inks by J. P. Mayer and BIT, the issue sets a relentless pace—culminating in Superman’s fateful decision to imprison Zod and himself in the Phantom Zone, only to be pulled back by Nightwing and the Nightwing entity, leading to a shocking transformation and alliance with Mon-El. The cover by Eddy Barrows and J. P. Mayer captures the moment’s intensity, a 19.99 USD (22.99 CAD) entry in a pivotal chapter of Superman’s legacy.
Lois Lane pieces together the past two years of Superman’s life for a Daily Planet article, but gaps remain—moments that defy memory or explanation. Jimmy Olsen arrives with the missing details, uncovering truths that stretch back to the fall of Krypton and beyond.
In the wake of Zod’s assault on Earth, Superman races to halt the escalating war, facing off against General Zod, Ursa, and Non as New Krypton burns. With Alura’s fate sealed and Reactron’s true nature exposed, the fate of Earth and the last remnants of Krypton hangs in the balance—just as the battle for New Krypton reaches its breaking point.
In the wake of New Krypton’s fall, Superman, Supergirl, and General Zod face an escalating crisis as the Kryptonian fleet advances on Earth, obliterating the Human Defense Corps base on Mars. With Earth’s fate hanging in the balance, General Sam Lane makes a desperate move—using Lex Luthor to turn the sun red, a gambit that could alter everything.
In "Part 3: The Battle for Earth," Superman and his allies rally as the sun turns red, threatening all life on Earth. With Flamebird's sacrifice restoring the sun and the Kryptonians regrouping, Superman and Supergirl prepare to face General Zod and his forces in a final stand at the White House, while the fate of the planet hangs in the balance.
In "Part 4: The Battle for Survival," Superman, Supergirl, and a fractured alliance of heroes stand against the overwhelming might of General Zod’s Kryptonian forces, with the fate of Earth hanging in the balance. As the fight rages across Cairo and the White House, alliances shift and long-buried secrets surface—especially when Supergirl confronts General Sam Lane, whose choices echo through the chaos. With the Phantom Zone looming and the line between justice and vengeance blurring, the heroes must unite in ways they never expected—before the final reckoning.
In "The Comeback," Lois Lane steps in to disrupt a criminal scheme led by the Prankster and the Parasite, only to be swiftly rescued by Superman. After wrapping up the case and filing her report, the two finally share a long-overdue moment together—reconnecting after time apart, with the weight of their bond quietly rekindling in the quiet aftermath.
