Superman 3: Reign of the Supermen - Softcover
SUPERMAN IS DEAD.
But now, four mysterious beings appear--all with the powers and abilities of the Man of Steel! One claims he is a clone from the DNA of Superman. Another--half-man and half-machine--says he is Superman with a cyborg body. Still another, a cold redeemer of justice, states that he alone has the right to wear the "S" shield. And, finally, an armored figure who says he fights with the heart and soul of Superman.
Who is the true Superman?
DAN JURGENS (SUPERMAN: LOIS & CLARK), KARL KESEL (SUPERBOY), JERRY ORDWAY (ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN), LOUISE SIMONSON (SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL) and ROGER STERN (ACTION COMICS) introduce four new Supermen to the DC Universe.

About the Author:
Dan Jurgens is a writer and artist most famous for creating Booster Gold as well as for being one of the main forces behind "The Death of Superman."

Louise Simonson began her career in comics as an editor forWarren Publications, and went on to work at both Marvel Comics and DC,where she garnered acclaim for her writing on X-Factor, Power Pack, New Mutants, SUPERMAN: MAN OF STEEL,STEEL, and WORLD OF WARCRAFT. She is the author of the graphic novel Snow White and the Seven Robots.
Roger Stern has written for radio, television, the stage, and the Internet,creating scripts for everything from sketch comedy to flash-animation. For ten years, he was the senior writer of the Superman series, and has written hundreds of stories about such diverse characters as Green Lantern, Supergirl, Starman, and the Justice League for DC Comics; and Spider-Man, Captain America, the Incredible Hulk, and the Avengers for Marvel. His first prose novel, The Death and Life of Superman, was a New York Times bestseller.

"The other 'Replacement Supermen' have gone down in myth and all, but while all of that was going on there was an un-praised, hardly-noticed-at-all, Fifth Replacement Superman on the rise in the form of Bibbo Bibbowski. The thing that set Bibbo apart from the others was that he was the only truly normal man to try to fill Superman's shoes -- he wasn't a cyborg, or a super-powered clone, a Kryptonian war machine, and even Steel was an engineering genius -- no, Bibbo couldn't do much at all really, but he believed in enough in what Superman stood for to go out and try anyway. That's the whole essence of what works like Grant Morrison's All-Star Superman are trying to distill about what Superman means -- that we could all be Superman, if we only tried. It's perhaps the second cleanest, most pure, message in the entire event." -- Elvis Dutan
