“Man and Superman, Chapter One: In Which He Leaves Smallville as a Boy”

In "Man and Superman, Chapter One: In Which He Leaves Smallville as a Boy," a young Clark Kent takes on a job as a custodian in Metropolis, quietly observing the lives of his coworkers and the city’s pulse. As tensions rise and a series of deliberate building explosions shake the city, Clark finds himself stepping into the role of "the flying man" when Metropolis chooses to resist its blackmailer. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated with striking detail by Claudio Castellini—whose work also defines the striking cover—this Deluxe Edition reimagines Clark’s early days with emotional depth and a grounded sense of place.

Clark takes a job as a custodian until he can get a job as a reporter, and learns how his co-workers feel about life and politics in Metropolis. Clark tries to get an interview with Perry White, but Perry and Lois get called away to the mayor's office, where they learn that the building explosions were deliberate, and the city is being blackmailed to prevent further attacks. When the city decides to fight back, Clark as "the flying man" must rescue victims from another explosion.
