Colección Héroes y Villanos #22
This volume from ECC Ediciones' Colección Héroes y Villanos series focuses on a key character from the DC Universe, offering a curated selection of stories that highlight their role as either a hero or villain.

A 2021 issue from ECC Ediciones' Colección Héroes y Villanos, this comic features a story written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Eddie Campbell, with inking and coloring by Campbell and Hollingsworth respectively. The cover, credited to Dave Gibbons for both pencils and inks, presents a striking visual for the collection.
In "null," Superman and Green Lantern find themselves ensnared by the mysterious Green Flame of the Green Lantern, its power threatening to consume them. The Phantom Stranger arrives to unravel the flame’s hold, guiding them toward escape and reclaiming the artifact before it can claim more.
In "null," Superman, isolated in the Fortress and besieged by Brainiac (in Luthor’s body), the Kryptonite Man, and the Legion of Super-Villains, uncovers the true architect of the assault and summons Mr. Mxyzptlk—only for the mischievous imp to flee into his own dimension, tearing himself apart in the process. Haunted by the cost of his actions, Superman confronts the consequences of his choice, leading to a quiet, poignant moment as Lois, her husband Jordy, and their infant son Jonathan share a peaceful evening.
In "null," Lois Lane Elliot recounts the chaotic final days of Superman to journalist Tim Crane, ten years after his disappearance. As Bizarro turned violent, the Toyman and the Prankster exposed Superman’s identity, and a wave of Metallos attacked the Daily Planet, forcing him to shelter his closest allies at the Fortress of Solitude. When Brainiac possessed Lex Luthor and summoned the Kryptonite Man, the Legion of Super-Heroes arrived with Supergirl—bringing a mysterious statuette that may hold the key to what comes next.
In "null," Clark, weakened by a Kryptonian fungus slowly consuming him, flees south as his powers flicker and fail. Lost and desperate in a swamp, he stumbles upon the only being who might hold the key to his survival—Swamp Thing.
In "null," Wonder Woman, Batman, and Robin arrive at the Fortress of Solitude for Superman’s birthday, only to find him entranced by the Black Mercy—a mysterious flower from Mongul that plunges him into a dream of Krypton’s untouched past. As Wonder Woman battles Mongul, Batman and Robin work to free Superman, but the flower’s power shifts unexpectedly, testing their resolve and turning the tide in a moment of unexpected consequence.
