Superman #2

Superman stands battered but unbowed on this striking 2013 Urban Comics French-language edition, his costume torn and his fists raised against a crowd of looming robotic or armored figures in the smoky background. Collecting work by Grant Morrison, Sholly Fisch, Rags Morales, and Gene Ha, À Toute Épreuve ("Against All Odds") promises a Man of Steel tested to his limits. It's a compelling package for francophone readers diving into DC's New 52 take on the Last Son of Krypton.
