☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Kandor Connection," Superman grapples with the shifting nature of his powers as he and Lois navigate the implications of his new abilities—and the vulnerability of his Clark Kent identity. As the people of Kandor begin to sense a change in their unseen watcher, Superman faces off against both a familiar foe and a new threat tied to a controversial article, while a mysterious figure intervenes to save a key player. Written by Karl Kesel and brought to life with dynamic art by Stuart Immonen, this issue blends personal stakes with larger mysteries, all under the striking cover by Dan Jurgens and Joe Rubinstein.
When Superman’s powers spiral out of control and he gains unpredictable new abilities, Metropolis teeters on the edge. With the Atomic Skull newly freed and Intergang’s clones escalating their criminal campaign, Superman struggles to stay grounded—just as he vanishes mid-battle, leaving Boss Moxie, Mike "Machine" Gunn, Torcher [Ginny McCree], and Dabney Donovan to pick up the pieces.
In "Blood & Thunder," Superman Blue grapples with the shifting weight of his powers as he and Lois Lane navigate the fallout of his transformation into a powerless Clark. With Kandor's citizens sensing a change in their unseen watcher, Superman confronts Dark Armstrong over a damaging article, only to be forced into a brutal clash with Metallo. Amid the chaos, Scorn steps in to save Ashbury Armstrong, setting off a chain of revelations that stretch from the Daily Planet to the heart of a hidden conspiracy.
Superman Blue, recovering from recent injuries, seeks guidance from The Ray as he grapples with the evolving nature of his powers. Meanwhile, tensions rise in Kandor as Scorn lurks beyond the city’s confines, and Superman Blue faces off once more against Metallo—only to see the villain slip away. With Lois, Jimmy, Perry, and the rest of the Metropolis S.C.U. watching, the stakes grow as old conflicts and new threats begin to collide.
In "A Hard Day's Night!", Booster Gold seeks help from Superman Blue, hoping the Man of Steel can unravel a mystery tied to a strange new threat. As the two team up, old tensions and unexpected truths surface—especially when Booster realizes the cost of being a hero might be heavier than he ever imagined. Meanwhile, Perry White prepares to deliver a momentous announcement that could change everything.
Superman Blue tests his limits with help from Professor Emil Hamilton, only to discover unrest in Kandor. He enlists Atom to shrink down and infiltrate the city, while Scorn—wearing a full Superman suit—tracks down Ashbury Armstrong.
