☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2016 collection brings together the final story arc of writer Geoff Johns' run on Superman, featuring art by John Romita Jr. and Klaus Janson. The narrative pits the Man of Steel against a new and mysterious threat named Ulysses, a character whose powers and origins challenge Superman's understanding of heroism and humanity. The volume collects issues #32-39 of the 2011-2016 Superman series, along with the Superman: Men of Tomorrow #1 one-shot, delivering a tale of cosmic stakes and personal conflict.
In "Chapter One," Superman faces Ulysses, a being driven by vengeance after the destruction of The Great World, in a battle that pushes him to unleash the full power of his solar energy in a desperate bid to protect Earth. Written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by John Romita Jr., with inks by Klaus Janson and vibrant colors by Laura Martin, Ulises Arreola, Wil Quintana, and Dan Brown, the story unfolds with emotional weight as Clark Kent, after the crisis, reflects on his choices and shares a quiet, revealing moment with Jimmy at the Daily Planet. The cover, by John Romita Jr. and Klaus Janson, captures the intensity of the confrontation.
In "Chapter Seven" from Superman: The Men of Tomorrow, Superman faces a devastating reckoning when Ulysses, driven by grief and rage over the destruction of The Great World, attempts to obliterate Earth. As Clark Kent, he confronts Ulysses in custody, offering not judgment but a quiet plea for understanding, while grappling with the weight of his own choices. Later, back at the Daily Planet, a moment of shared silence and hot dogs with Jimmy Olsen becomes a turning point—one where Clark finally opens up in a way he never has before.
In "24 Hours," Jimmy Olsen gets an unexpected front-row seat to the human side of Superman as the Man of Steel navigates a rare period of power depletion. When Superman charges into a high-stakes hostage crisis, Jimmy realizes that courage and resolve run deeper than any superpower — and that even the world's mightiest hero has limits.
