Meet Clark Kent, a young reporter who just learned that the world will soon come to an end (Crisis on Infinite Earths) and there is nothing he can do to save it. Sounds like a job for his alter ego…Superman! After years of standing idle, the young man from Krypton defies the wishes of his fathers to come out to the world as the first superhero of the Space Age. As each decade passes and each new danger emerges, he wonders if this is the one that will kill him and everyone he loves. Superman realizes that even good intentions are not without their backlash as the world around him transforms into a place as determined to destroy itself as he is to save it. Uniting the critically acclaimed writer Mark Russell (One-Star Squadron, The Flintstones) and Eisner-winner Mike Allred (Silver Surfer, Bowie: Stardust, Rayguns & Moonage Daydreams) for the first time, this series promises fans an unforgettable journey through U.S. history and culture starring our beloved characters.

Reviews
Hey Kids! What If? All-Star Superman and Justice League New Frontier were in a Telepod accident together? Why, you'd have the best Mark Russell comic since Flintstones, along with outstanding art from Allred. As much as I like the current Superman books, this one is seriously old school without seeming overly anachronistic. It's a spectacular mix of the familiar with just enough tweaking to make the story seem fresh. Highly recommended for fans of classic 60's/'70's era Superman, those who aren't fans of the current Superman titles, and anyone who thinks that Madman should have his own Arctic crystal fortress.
