Superman: Earth One (DC Comics Graphic Novel Collection)

Forget everything you know about Superman „The Man of Steel“ and brace yourself for a staggering new take on the Super Hero. Introducing the next hardback special edition in the DC Graphic Novel Collection Superman Earth One.

This was the first in a new wave of original DC Universe graphic novels, featuring top writers' and illustrators' unique takes on DC characters. The story so far... A quiet young man called Clark Kent arrives in Metropolis seeking to find his place in the world. But this is no ordinary young man. Clark was born on a distant planet and possesses powers that could rip the Earth apart - or save it from any peril. Forces are in motion that will change Clark’s world forever, as the military has reconstructed the spaceship he arrived in; and are hunting him down.

Meanwhile, from the depths of space, an alien armada seeks out the lone survivor of the cataclysm that engulfed Krypton. It is led by Tyrell, a being with the power to match that of his quarry. The world stands on the brink of destruction, and Clark must decide if he is ready to accept his destiny.
