Superman #4
This 2016 collection from DC Comics reprints the iconic 'Return of Superman' storyline, which follows the Man of Steel's resurrection after his death at the hands of Doomsday. The volume gathers issues from the early 1990s crossover event, featuring the four would-be successors—Superboy, Steel, the Cyborg Superman, and the Eradicator—before the true Superman's return. It's a key chapter in Superman's modern mythos, written by Dan Jurgens, Karl Kesel, and others, with art by a roster of legendary creators.
In "Who Is the Hero True?", Superman and the Justice League gather at the ruins of Coast City to honor its legacy, only to confront lingering alien remnants within the wreckage of Engine City. As tensions rise and secrets surface, a dramatic rescue by Supergirl leaves Lex Luthor on a dangerous new path—just as the heroes begin to rebuild. Written and illustrated by Dan Jurgens, with cover art by Dan Jurgens and Brett Breeding, this 2016 issue blends solemn remembrance with the quiet shift of a hero's new beginning.
