IT’S DARKEST AT THE DAWN! Vandal Savage can afford
to be patient—he’s immortal, thanks to fragments from a comet he
came into contact with more than 40,000 years ago...a comet that he has since
spent aeons and spilled blood trying to bring back to Earth. A comet that,
should he reclaim it, will grant him untold might. Savage’s patience is
about to pay off. Through his operatives, he’s taken Superman’s
powers—and, indirectly, his secret identity—to siphon the collective
strength of the Justice League and generate the ultimate tractor beam. As the
beam draws Savage’s long-lost comet all the way back to Earth,
unsuspecting souls bearing the immortal’s genetic signature are suddenly
infused with maddening might, while their “father’s”
already-incredible power exponentially increases. Only a handful of heroes, led
by Wonder Woman and a depowered Superman, stand between Savage and his comet,
and soon even they won’t be enough—that is, unless Superman taps
into a deadly element from his past to deny his immortal adversary a future of
eternal power. Acclaimed writers Gene Luen Yang (BOXERS & SAINTS), Greg Pak
(BATMAN/SUPERMAN), Aaron N. Kuder (SUPERBOY) and Peter J. Tomasi (BATMAN &
ROBIN), joined by a who’s who of artists including Howard Porter (JUSTICE
LEAGUE #3001), Ardian Syaf (BATMAN/SUPERMAN) and Doug Mahnke (GREEN LANTERN),
bring one of DC’s mightiest—and oldest—villains to the
forefront and signal the final days of Krypton’s last son. Collects
SUPERMAN ANNUAL #3, ACTION COMICS #48-50, SUPERMAN/WONDER WOMAN #25-27 and
SUPERMAN #48-50. This book includes two never-before-published stories following
Wonder Woman after the conclusion of the events of SAVAGE DAWN.
