Superman: Secret Identity #2
In "Metropolis," Clark Kent takes his first steps as a journalist in Manhattan, drawn to the city’s pulse and a woman named Lois. As he balances his new life with the sudden, unsettling reality of being captured and taken to a hidden lab while wearing the suit, the line between hero and experiment blurs. Written by Kurt Busiek and brought to life with striking clarity by Stuart Immonen—whose art defines the issue’s tone—this story captures the quiet tension of identity under pressure, with cover art by Immonen adding a haunting, intimate edge.
