“The Boy Who Stole Superman's Cape”

In *Action Comics #0* (2012), Grant Morrison and Ben Oliver launch a fresh take on Superman’s early days in Metropolis, where a rogue RPG knocks the Man of Steel unconscious—and a daring kid makes off with his cape. As Clark Kent settles into his new apartment and bonds with his landlady, a young hero-in-the-making risks everything to protect a friend, only to be saved by the very figure he stole from. The cover by Ben Oliver captures the moment with striking detail, setting the tone for a story that redefines Superman’s first steps in the city.
