“The Second Death of Superman”

In "The Second Death of Superman," Superman faces a wave of escalating threats as the adult Legion of Super-Heroes steals a Time Sphere, setting off a chain of chaos. With Krypto by his side, Superman must confront Dr. Xa-Du, the powerful mind of Lois's niece Susie, the enigmatic Vyndktvx, K-Man, Nimrod, and the unleashed Superdoom—while Lex Luthor's ill-fated scheme backfires in a way he never anticipated. Written by Grant Morrison and illustrated by Brad Walker, Rags Morales, with inks by Andrew Hennessy and Mark Propst, and colors by Brad Anderson, the issue's cover by Rags Morales captures the intensity of a universe on the brink.
