About this Collection

This volume collects Superman: The Man of Steel #28-36 and Superman Annual #3, continuing John Byrne's influential post-Crisis run. The stories feature Superman facing threats like the Eradicator, the return of the Kryptonite Man, and a pivotal confrontation with the villainous Lex Luthor. This era redefined Superman's mythos for a new generation of readers.

In "Skeeter," John Byrne's writing and art bring a sharp, personal clash to Superman’s mythos as Booster Gold confronts the Man of Steel over his actions in Qurac. The tension escalates when a second Booster Gold suddenly appears, turning the confrontation into something far more complex than a simple clash of heroes. The issue’s cover, by Jerry Ordway, captures the moment with a striking, dynamic image that hints at the mystery unfolding within.
