About the series
In 1988, DC published a single oversized issue of Daily Planet Invasion! Extra, a satirical one-shot that masquerades as a special edition of the Metropolis newspaper. Written and drawn by a team of top-tier talent, this comic presents a "what if" scenario where alien forces attack the Daily Planet, forcing Lois Lane, Clark Kent, and the rest of the staff to defend their newsroom without Superman's immediate aid. It's a lighthearted, self-contained oddity that plays with the conventions of both superhero comics and newspaper journalism, offering a unique glimpse into the daily lives of the Planet's reporters under pressure. While a brief experiment, it stands as a clever, character-driven standalone piece in the DC universe.
