Stories

What's So Funny about Truth, Justice & the American Way? · 39 pages
A new group of superhumans appears on the scene, with more violent solutions for the problems. Now Superman must demonstrate which is the correct way to stop the villains.

Publisher’s description

Extra-sized issue! Has Superman become outdated in our modern world? A new aggressive team of metahumans called the Elite certainly thinks so, and they're about to wreck the Man of Steel's truth, justice, and American way. And if a lot of innocent bystanders get killed in the process, so be it!
