Superboy #0

Part of DC's New 52 "zero issue" initiative of 2012, this special issue carries the intriguing story title "Clonesurrection!" — promising a look back at the origins of the clone hero himself. R. B. Silva and Rob Lean's cover presents Superboy in his sleek black-and-red suit, fists clenched and jaw set with fierce determination as he bursts forward through what appears to be panels of uncolored comic art, the monochrome backgrounds contrasting sharply with his vivid, fully rendered figure. It's a striking visual statement from Tom DeFalco, Silva, and Lean that sets an appropriately bold tone for an issue reaching back to this Superboy's beginnings.
