About this Collection

Superman Vol. 3: The Truth Revealed collects issues #12-17 of the 2020 Superman series, continuing the storyline where the Man of Steel's secret identity is exposed to the world. This arc explores the fallout of that revelation, as Clark Kent faces unprecedented scrutiny from the public, the government, and his enemies while trying to protect his family and uphold his ideals. Written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson with art by Scott Godlewski and others, the volume delves into the personal and global consequences of a world that now knows Superman is also a husband and father in Smallville.

In "Superman ft. Super Sons," the world reels as Superman’s secret identity as Clark Kent is exposed, sending shockwaves through the criminal underworld. Lex Luthor grapples with his humiliation, Toyman abandons crime for Checkmate, and Mongul’s empire collapses when his son takes over—while an infected Supergirl begins her own twisted crusade. Meanwhile, in Metropolis, Clark, Lois, and Perry face the daunting task of publishing proof that Marison Leone leads the Invisible Mafia. Written by Brian Michael Bendis, Matt Fraction, and Jody Houser, with art by Michael Gaydos, Riley Rossmo, Scott Godlewski, Bryan Hitch, Cully Hamner, Steve Lieber, and Jim Mahfood, and a cover by Ivan Reis and Joe Prado, this 2020 issue captures the chaos and consequences of a truth that changes everything.
