Superman: Birthright #1

"Kal-El…" kicks off Mark Waid’s reimagined take on Superman’s origin, following the young Kryptonian’s journey from a dying world to Earth, where he’s raised as Clark Kent. Twenty-five years later, the story finds Clark in West Africa, searching for his place in the world. Leinil Francis Yu’s dynamic art, rendered with inks by Gerry Alanguilan and colors by Dave McCaig, brings a grounded yet epic feel to this pivotal chapter, with Yu and Alanguilan also responsible for the striking cover.
