Superman vs. Lobo #[nn]
In "Book One," Superman and Lobo are thrown into an unexpected clash when Numen, a rare godlike alien, stumbles into our universe—only for Lobo to destroy what he sees as a threat. As Lex Luthor stokes public distrust of Superman through a manipulative social media platform, Lobo launches his own campaign to undermine the Man of Steel. When Numen reappears, it sends both heroes to alternate versions of their homeworlds—Superman to Czarnia, Lobo to Krypton—leaving their fates and the true nature of the alien's arrival shrouded in mystery. Written by Tim Seeley and Sarah Beattie, with bold visuals by Mirka Andolfo and Arif Prianto, and a striking cover by Mirka Andolfo, this 2022 DC story sets a high-stakes, character-driven stage with a 24.99 USD cover price.

Numen, a last-of-its-kind godlike alien lifeform, comes to our universe inadvertently causing an incident that draws Superman and Lobo. Superman attempts communication, but Lobo impulsively destroys the creature – or has he? Meanwhile, Lex Luthor gins-up anti-Superman anger with a biased social media platform. Jealous of the heroic Superman, Lobo starts his own disinformation outlet to defame the Man of Steel. During the expected battle between Superman and Lobo, Numen reappears to send the combatants back to restorations of their homeworlds – but sends Superman to Czarnia and Lobo to Krypton.
