Flashpoint: The World of Flashpoint Featuring Superman

In 2012, DC Comics and writer/artist Dan Jurgens explored the warped reality of the Flashpoint universe through a single, self-contained issue focusing on its version of Superman. This tie-in presents a radically different Kal-El, one who was never found by the Kents and instead grew up in a secret government facility, stripped of the warmth and hope that define the classic hero. With Jurgens and Rick Leonardi on art, the issue stands as a grim, standalone snapshot of a world gone wrong, offering a poignant counterpoint to the main Flashpoint event by showing how a single change can darken even the most iconic of legacies.
