“...With But a Single Step!”

In "With But a Single Step!", Superman faces a transformed Brainiac, now wielding a new form and a terrifying new purpose—escaping to rally an alien army. As Earth trembles under the threat, long-lost heroes begin to stir, drawn together by forces beyond their understanding. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life with dynamic art by Gil Kane (pencils and inks), this 1983 classic features bold colors by Gene D'Angelo and crisp lettering by Todd Klein, with a striking cover by Gil Kane.
