SUPERMAN EARTH ONE HC |
|
Written by J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI
Art by SHANE DAVIS & SANDRA HOPE
Cover by SHANE DAVIS
Forget everything you know about The Man of Steel and brace yourself for a
staggering new take on the world's most popular super-hero. Best-selling, Hugo
Award-winning writer J. Michael Straczynski (BRAVE AND THE BOLD, THOR, BABYLON
5) and red-hot rising star artist Shane Davis (GREEN LANTERN, SUPERMAN/BATMAN)
team up for this exciting launch of the EARTH ONE graphic novel series. Set in
an all-new continuity re-imagining DC's top heroes, EARTH ONE is a wave of
original, standalone graphic novels produced by the top writers and artists in
the industry. The groundbreaking new line rockets into effect right here with
the super-hero who started it all -- Superman!
What would happen if the origin of the Man of Tomorrow were introduced today for
the very first time? Return to bucolic Smallville and experience the journey of
Earth's favorite adopted son as he grows from boy to Superman as you've never
seen before!
