Superman The Kryptonite Spectrum (2025)

The team behind the critically acclaimed Ice Cream Man comic comes to DC to apply its singular storytelling style to none other than the Man of Steel! Four new Kryptonites have been discovered in deep space, and Superman needs to know just what, exactly, they do to him--lest the colorful rocks of his home planet fall into evil hands! With Batman at Superman's side, this DC Black Label Superman event explores the consequences of each never-before-seen variety of Kryptonite--all in the formal and boundary-pushing fashion that W. Maxwell Prince, Martín Morazzo, and Chris O'Halloran are celebrated for!

THE CREATIVE TEAM BEHIND ICE CREAM MAN PRESENTS: SUPES-ZILLA! This colorful cruise through a cornucopia of curious new Kryptonites continues! After last issue's timey-wimey race against (or was it toward?) the clock, Superman (with Batman's help!) is left to deal with the sizable effects of cobalt Kryptonite. Watch in awe as the Man of Steel grows, grows...and grows some more, bringing us the Kal-El kaiju comic of our collective dreams! What’s happened to the fortress? Why is Supes-zilla so angry? And what on earth is Chemo doing here? Find out in this guest-filled romp from the creative team behind Ice Cream Man--in a story only they could possibly tell. Featuring Wonder Woman, John Stewart, Atom Smasher, and the introduction of Linda, Queen of Spreadsheets and Pivot Tables.

W. MAXWELL PRINCE AND MARTIN MORAZZO TAKE SUPERMAN TO EVEN WEIRDER HEIGHTS! Superboy and Captain Marvel ride the rickety roller coaster (literally!) through the many-hued amusement park of motley meteoroids that is the Kryptonite Spectrum! With Superman now a bit...shorter in the tooth...the Boy of Yesterday must team up with a truly Marvelous friend in a story for the ages...for all ages! What, exactly, is Nostalgia Springs? And what do Toyman and Sivana have to do with it? Find out in this great adventure--chock-full of crayons, Kryptonites, and a cruise through comics chronology!

EVERYTHING IS ABOUT TO CHANGE! Superman finds himself somewhere over the rainbow in this landmark issue--featuring the debut of a brand-new, canon-changing, sure-to-be-essential-for-all-time character! (At the very least, he’s awfully cute!) What never happened to the Man of Tomorrow? The answer awaits in a form-bending, head-spinning, myxed-up melee of mites, men, and multicolored meteoroids. It’s a major milestone for our magnificent medium--with two added dimensions for extra support!

DON'T MISS THE MIND-BENDING CONCLUSION! What’s truly at he end of the rainbow? We can’t be certain, but we’re pretty sure it ain’t a pot of gold! Up to now it’s been a peculiar, polychromatic pilgrimage for Superman: he’s lost track of time under the influence of Purple Kryptonite, grown to skyscraper size via Cobalt K, revisited his adolescence by way of Speckled K, and traveled to the fifth dimension using a key carved of Rainbow Rock. Now, in this final issue, the chickens have come home to roost--and so, too, has Kal-El. Back in Metropolis, the Man of Tomorrow must stand face-to-face with the Man of Today...and decide for himself, finally, whether Lex is right: Does home hurt too much?
