Superman: American Alien #4
In "Owl," Clark Kent’s first day at the Daily Planet unfolds with unexpected twists: a chance meeting with Lois Lane, a confusing encounter with Oliver Queen who mistakes him for Bruce Wayne, a tense interview with Alexander Luthor, a revealing moment with Dick Grayson, and a shadowed confrontation with Batman himself—all drawn in striking, atmospheric detail by Jae Lee and colored with haunting precision by June Chung. The story, written by Max Landis, captures the weight of identity and legacy in a world where even the most ordinary day can feel like a turning point. Cover by Ryan Sook.
