Superboy: The Man of Tomorrow #4

Part of DC's 2023 Dawn of DC initiative, Superboy: The Man of Tomorrow #4 puts Conner Kent front and center on a cover by Jahnoy Lindsay that radiates genuine tension — a swarm of massive violet fists closes in from every direction while Superboy braces himself, wide-eyed but clearly not backing down. That striking image of one young hero standing firm against overwhelming odds makes a compelling case for what writer Kenny Porter and Lindsay (pulling triple duty as artist, inker, and colorist) are building with this series.
