About this Collection

This volume collects the first story arc of the Smallville comic series, which continues the adventures of a young Clark Kent in the years before he becomes Superman. Set in the same continuity as the popular television show, it bridges the gap between the series finale and Clark's eventual move to Metropolis, featuring familiar characters and new challenges in his journey toward becoming a hero.

In "Raptor," Lex Luthor faces a deadly conspiracy that casts him as a murderer, with the shadows of his past and his father’s influence looming large. As he digs into the mysterious death of his friend Malcolm Barnes, the truth begins to unravel in ways that challenge everything he thought he knew. Written by Mark Verheiden and Clint Carpenter, with art by Renato Guedes and inks by Oclair Albert, this pivotal issue features a striking cover by John Van Fleet.
