Future State: Superman: Worlds of War #1

Part of DC's 2021 Future State event, this oversized anthology issue brings together Clark Kent, Midnighter, Black Racer, and Mister Miracle across stories set in a war-torn tomorrow. Mikel Janín's cover sets the tone immediately — a bloodied, unchained figure (Clark Kent, stripped of his Superman costume) strains defiantly against massive, monstrous hands while lightning crackles across a fiery red sky and armored figures loom in the background, the whole image radiating bruised, hard-won resistance. With Janín's art and Jordie Bellaire's vivid colors throughout, this $7.99 package delivers a lot of cosmic conflict for fans willing to follow their favorite characters into genuinely dangerous territory.
