☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeSuperman: Savage Dawn collects the 2016 crossover storyline in which the Man of Steel faces a mysterious new threat that strips him of his powers, forcing him to rely on his wits and allies like Wonder Woman and the Justice League to survive. Written by Peter J. Tomasi and others, with art by Mikel Janín and various artists, this volume includes issues from the Superman, Action Comics, and related series that tie into the event.
In "Savage Dawn," Superman faces his oldest enemy, Vandal Savage, who has hijacked the powers of numerous heroes to manipulate a passing comet—once the source of Savage’s own immortality—into a devastating weapon. With the fate of Earth hanging in the balance, Superman launches a desperate attack, only to be pushed to the brink before the Fortress of Solitude intervenes and restores him. Written by Greg Pak and Aaron Kuder, with art by Aaron Kuder, David Messina, Javi Fernández, Bruno Redondo, Vicente Cifuentes, and inks by Aaron Kuder, Gaetano Carlucci, Juan Albarran, Javi Fernández, and Vicente Cifuentes, and colored by Tomeu Morey, Arif Prianto, and Wil Quintana, this 2016 DC issue delivers a high-stakes clash of wills. The cover by John Romita Jr. and Danny Miki captures the intensity of the moment.
In "Savage Dawn: Assault," Superman faces off against the immortal Vandal Savage, who’s wielding Frankenstein as a weapon and has taken the Justice League hostage. With help from Steel, Ray Palmer, and the Justice League United, Superman pushes through a brutal fight to free Wonder Woman—only to find the rest of the team now in Savage’s grip.
In "Savage Dawn: Immortal Combat," Vandal Savage enlists his descendant Salvaxe to confront Superman, who has just regained his powers—though they come at a deadly cost. As Superman fights the Puzzlerbot, Wonder Woman uncovers a shocking truth: Vandal Savage has fired an energy blast at Jupiter and is using his ship to steal the Fortress of Solitude.
In "Resurrection," Superman confronts Vandal Savage’s desperate bid to harness the power of a passing comet by siphoning the abilities of Earth’s mightiest heroes. With his allies launching a covert strike, Superman pushes through a brutal assault—only to be saved when the Fortress of Solitude recognizes him and restores his strength, reigniting his fight against the ancient villain.
