This volume collects issues #1012–1016 of the 2020 Action Comics series, continuing the storyline where Superman investigates the mysterious organization Leviathan as it tightens its grip on global espionage. Writer Brian Michael Bendis and artist Szymon Kudranski pit the Man of Steel against a shadowy conspiracy that threatens to destabilize the world's intelligence networks, with the truth behind Leviathan's leader finally coming to light.
In "By Any Other Name...", Superman steps in when Thorn clashes with Leviathan agents targeting her, even as she struggles to control her volatile Red Cloud powers. With Robinson Goode sharing what Thorn learned from her encounter with Leviathan, and Ms. Leone refusing Lex Luthor’s tempting offer, tensions rise in a story written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Szymon Kudranski, with Brad Anderson’s colors and Dave Sharpe’s letters bringing the intensity to life. The cover by Jamal Campbell captures the moment’s edge, setting the stage for a pivotal chapter in the ongoing saga.
