About this Collection

This collection kicks off the 2024 relaunch of Action Comics, reuniting writer Joshua Williamson with artist Rafa Sandoval. The story follows Superman as he confronts a newly upgraded and deadly Metallo, while also dealing with the fallout from the Lazarus Planet event and the emergence of a mysterious new threat in Metropolis. The volume collects the first five issues of the series, setting the stage for a new era in the Man of Steel's adventures.

"Speeding Bullets, Part 1" kicks off a bold new chapter in the Superman mythos with a gripping tale that thrusts John Henry into the crosshairs of Metallo’s deadly drones. As the Super-Family scrambles to protect him, Supergirl takes a hard hit in the fray, and Superman confronts Luthor over his shadowy ties to Metallo’s crusade—while Metallo presses forward, driven by a personal mission to eliminate Superman and his family to save his sister. Meanwhile, Jon adjusts to life with new visitors from the planet Ra: Otho-Ra and Osul-Ra. Written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson and brought to life with dynamic art by Rafa Sandoval, this issue pulses with urgency and emotional weight, all framed by Dan Mora’s striking cover.
