Der Neue Superman

A twelve-issue German-language reprint series from Egmont Ehapa, Der Neue Superman (1987–1988) collected the post-Crisis on Infinite Earths relaunch of the Man of Steel, presenting John Byrne's definitive reboot to a new audience. Featuring scripts and art from Byrne alongside Marv Wolfman, Bob Rozakis, Jerry Ordway, and the legendary Curt Swan, the series distilled the streamlined origin and modernized adventures that redefined Superman for the late 1980s. It matters as a key period piece, capturing the era when DC's flagship hero shed decades of continuity for a fresh start.
