Action Comics #1022

In "The House of Kent Part One," Superman and Conner grapple with the mystery of Conner’s reality as Jon and Brainiac 5 arrive from the future. With Perry White facing fallout after the Daily Planet exposes Ms. Leone’s criminal ties, the heroes gather at the Hall of Justice to theorize that reality itself may have been rebooted—leaving Conner as a remnant of a past timeline. When Superman takes Conner to the Kent farm, Jonathan and Martha suddenly remember raising him, unraveling a deeper truth about their past. Written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by John Romita Jr., with inks by Danny Miki, colors by Brad Anderson, and letters by Dave Sharpe, the issue’s cover by John Romita Jr. and Klaus Janson captures the emotional weight of this pivotal moment.
