“Yesterday's Man of Tomorrow”

In "Yesterday's Man of Tomorrow," a young Clark Kent faces a chilling warning from the mischievous Mxyzptlk, who claims that one day he’ll become a tyrant despite his heroic intentions. Written by Mark Millar and brought to life by Aluir Amâncio’s expressive art, this 1998 issue explores a pivotal moment in Clark’s past, with Terry Austin’s inks and Marie Severin’s colors adding depth to a story that questions the weight of destiny. The cover by Rick Burchett and Terry Austin captures the tension of a boy on the edge of a future he can’t yet see.
