SupermanTitanoLois LaneJimmy Olsen

When Superman Was King Kong! In a twist of cosmic accident, Superman’s intellect falters when red Kryptonite strikes during a movie screening—transforming him into a towering, primal force with the strength of a giant, but the mind of a beast. As the city trembles under his unpredictable rampage, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen must find a way to reach the man beneath the monster before the red Kryptonite’s hold turns his fury into chaos.
