“Up, Up, and Away! Chapter Four Powers and Abilities”

In "Up, Up, and Away! Chapter Four Powers and Abilities," Clark Kent faces a renewed threat as Neutron and Radion attack following Intergang’s exposure, only to discover his powers are returning—just as Lex Luthor’s K-cannon triggers a mysterious force deep beneath the Earth, sending something rising toward the surface. Written by Geoff Johns and Kurt Busiek, with dynamic art by Renato Guedes and colors by Brad Anderson, this issue blends high-stakes action with the quiet tension of Clark’s reawakening, all framed by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson’s striking cover.
