In order to save Metropolis, Superman must surrender to Brainiac or watch his city burn to the ground! After being taken aboard Brainiac’s ship, Superman finds a shocking piece of his past that changes his entire future! Meanwhile, Lois Lane gets a cryptic message from a mysterious source claiming to have a way to save the Man of Steel!

A few thoughts:

— DC also released Bryan Hitch’s (unlettered) variant cover for Superman ’78 #2 (above). Looks mighty hot inside the San Andreas Fault. But then it always did.

— Props to DC for their blurbs on the Superman ’78 and Batman ’89 solicitations so far. They tease a bit but give so little that reading the comics will really be a fresh experience — which is exactly what you want. I know that’s a weird compliment to make but there you have it.
