Superman #686

In "Yesterday and Tomorrow," Superman’s absence casts a long shadow over Metropolis as Mon-El, John Henry Irons, Jimmy Olsen, and the Guardian reflect on the trust he placed in them. With a new signal watch tuned to Jimmy’s hearing and a secret identity now in motion, Mon-El steps into the role of protector—only to face a dangerous confrontation with Rampage, leaving the Guardian and Steel to question the cost of vigilance. Written by James Robinson and illustrated by Renato Guedes, with inks by Jose Wilson Magalhaes, colors by David Curiel, and letters by John J. Hill, the issue’s cover by Andrew Robinson captures the weight of legacy and duty.
