As Kryptonian technology reshapes the world, his relationships with Lois Lane and Lex Luthor deepen, while a growing undercurrent of unrest brews among factory workers. With Galen Showman’s dynamic art and P. Craig Russell’s distinctive style shaping the interior, and Dave McCaig’s vivid colors bringing the era to life, this first chapter of DC Comics Presents: JLA – Age of Wonder sets a bold, grounded tone. The cover by Galen Showman captures the tension of a world on the cusp of transformation.
In the late 1800s, Clark Kent rises as Superman, a beacon of hope in an era of rapid progress, using Kryptonian science to inspire a new generation of heroes. As his influence grows, so do the shadows—lovers, rivals, and the desperate, including a factory worker whose tragedy alters the course of history. With Lois Lane by his side and Lex Luthor watching from the wings, Clark’s ideals are tested by those who see power not as a gift, but as a weapon.
In "The Age of Wonder [Part 2]," Secretary of Defense Luthor’s secret alliance with the Germans threatens to plunge the world into deeper chaos, as he manipulates war and technology to seize power. With London destroyed and General Jordan’s final act triggering Clark’s return, the fate of New York hangs in the balance as Superman and Diana of Themyscira face the ultimate test.
