Stories

  • Invisible Mafia Part 2 · 22 pages

    When a criminal's body is dropped into the center of Metropolis, Robinson Goode writes a story saying that he was dropped to his death by Superman, however Perry disproves the story and refuses to print it. The Guardian confronts Boss Moxie, when both are overcome by Red Cloud. Clark digs into Yogurt's death and finds that he was responsible for setting the fires in Metropolis, to distract Superman from his gang's other illegal activities. Clark is surprised to learn from Cat Grant that Lois is back.

Publisher’s description

A bold new era of the adventures of the Man of Steel continues as bodies fall from the sky and buildings burn around the City of Tomorrow. Even Superman must wonder how well he knows the city he protects as an unknown criminal element begins to rise throughout Metropolis.
