The
issue begins with Superman finding out he is dying after the events of the
Darkseid War, Savage Dawn, and JLA. However Superman continues to save lives as
he grows sicker. He meets his childhood sweetheart Lana Lang and Lois Lane to
reveal his final days as Superman.
Feedback
The
title is called The Final Days of
Superman which seems to mirror Alan Moore’s Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow. We know the
Pre-Flashpoint Superman will be the prime Superman after Rebirth however what
we do not know is the final fate of the New 52 Superman. He may die at the end
of Super League, DC Universe: Rebirth, or he may lose his powers completely and
remain as a powerless Clark Kent. Writer Peter Tomasi is taking over Superman and it seems since the New 52
began that the franchise is in good hands. He took what has happened to the New
52 Superman and brought all those stories forward to create a compelling
character within him.
