Right now is an exciting period for Superman enthusiasts! We’re experiencing a revival of quality comic stories featuring the Man of Steel, and guess what? Superman Day falls on this coming Friday, April 18th. It seems like things are looking brighter than ever for our favorite superhero! The DC team has even dubbed this summer as the “Summer of Superman,” marking it with the launch of their latest Summer of Superman Special, available now and offering a sneak peek into what’s coming up in comics. However, I believe there’s one thing that truly makes this summer belong to Superman, and that’s the highly-anticipated release of his upcoming movie!
We can skip the anticipation for premium Superman content because Superman Day is fast approaching! This year, it falls on April 18, marking the original publication date of the first Action Comics issue in 1938. To honor this occasion, DC has gathered a star-studded team of artists to craft variant covers for future Superman stories, emulating the style of James Gunn’s Superman movie. The stellar lineup includes renowned names like Nicola Scott, Jim Lee, Dan Jurgens, Dan Mora, Jerry Ordway, Jorge Jiménez, Kevin Maguire, and Frank Quitely. Truly, they’re a team to be reckoned with!
Supergirl #1 variant cover by Nicola Scott & Annette Kwok, publishing on May 14.
Superman Unlimited #1 variant cover by Jim Lee, publishing on May 21.
Action Comics #1087 variant cover by Dan Jurgens, publishing on June 11.
Krypto: The Last Dog of Krypton #1 variant cover by Dan Mora, publishing on June 18.
Superman #27 variant cover by Jerry Ordway, publishing on June 25.
Batman #161 variant cover by Jorge Jiménez, publishing on June 25.
Justice League Unlimited #9 variant cover by Frank Quitely, publishing on July 23.
Here’s another exciting piece of news for fellow comic book enthusiasts: As of now, we’re yet to unveil Kevin Maguire’s cover for the much-anticipated issue #41 of Batman/Superman: World’s Finest. Mark your calendars for July 16th, as that’s when it’ll hit the shelves. Keep a keen eye out for the final reveal of this cover; if previous ones are any indication, it’s bound to be another masterpiece. I can hardly wait to feast my eyes on these stunning creations!
The forthcoming “Superman” movie appears set to deliver an extraordinary viewing experience based on its trailers alone. Packed with Superman’s history and relationships, it promises even more revelations when it officially premieres. This film is poised to be the DC summer blockbuster, and it aligns perfectly with the launch of numerous new Superman-centric comics featuring other Super Family characters. The Summer of Superman is shaping up to make this year unforgettable, and the upcoming Superman Day will certainly heighten anticipation for what’s approaching very soon. It’s an exciting period to be a Superman enthusiast.
The movie titled Superman is set to be released on July 11. Visit your nearby comic book store for a look at all the upcoming Summer of Superman comic books.
