The Kents #4

Part four of DC's twelve-part saga "Truth, Justice & the American West" arrives with a cover by Tim Truman that crackles with frontier tension — a battered, wide-eyed young man in a broad-brimmed hat clutches a rifle in the foreground, while a harder, more weathered gunman looms behind him, and the Superman diamond symbol frames a silhouetted rider on horseback against a golden sky. "Bleeding Kansas" sets a vivid stage for the Kent family's roots in one of American history's most turbulent periods, blending the mythic imagery of Superman's legacy with the raw grit of the mid-nineteenth-century frontier. Ostrander, Truman, and Bair are firing on all cylinders with this series, and this installment looks like no exception.
