SUPERMAN AT THE END OF TIME! At the end of DC K.O., Superman became King Omega with the powers of a god. But after pushing Darkseid back to the Absolute World, Superman rejected the Heart of Apokolips… and went missing. Now the story of where he went can be told! The future was infected by Darkseid and his Legion — leaving a trail of death and disaster in their wake — including the Legion of Super-Heroes. Now Superman is using Time Trapper’s powers to heal the future and correct the damage that has been done. But Superman’s godlike powers are fading fast, and he may become lost at the end of time!
DC has announced “Kingdom of Zod,” a new crossover storyline unfolding across Supergirl, Action Comics, Superman Unlimited, and Superman in August and September. Featuring the talents of writers Joshua Williamson, Sophie Campbell, Mark Waid, and Dan Slott, along with artists Eddy Barrows, Joe Quinones, Montos, and Rachael Stott, “Kingdom of Zod” crossover pits Superman and DC’s Super-Family against General Dru-Zod as all the major threats from across the world of Superman in DC’s All In era collide!
The story begins on August 12 in Supergirl #16, when a mysterious military coup dangerously destabilizes the Kryptonite Kingdom of El Caldero. Supergirl assembles her own strike team—a Super-Force including Superboy-Prime, Conner Kent, Tomorrow Man, Steel, and more—to infiltrate the occupied territory. Fresh off the epic Reign of the Superboys storyline, Kara’s Superboy crew is shocked to discover this conquering force is Kryptonian in origin…and deadly. That same day, Action Comics #1101 sees Superman crash-land back into the present day after the events of Action Comics #1100 (no spoilers here!), only to find himself immediately drawn into the escalating conflict.
How the Kryptonian general has returned and what role he plays in the takeover will leave readers stunned, as a shocking twist sets the entire world ablaze with the power of Kryptonite! Guillem March provides connecting main covers across all four series in August, with variant covers by Noobovich, Stephanie Hans, Joe Quinones, Ariel Olivetti, Mike Choi, ACO, Taurin Clarke, Vincenzo Riccardi, and Christian Ward. Mark Spears will provide foil variant covers for all four titles.
The Kingdom of Zod crossover continues on August 19 in Superman Unlimited #16, where Zod reveals the true scope of his plan and unleashes a dangerous Kryptonite infection that spreads across the world. The first month of “Kingdom of Zod” concludes on August 26 with Superman #41, as Superman, Supergirl, Superboy-Prime, and the Super-Family confront Zod in a battle that will reshape the future of the House of El!
The story continues through September with chapters in Supergirl #17, Action Comics #1102, Superman Unlimited #17, and Superman #42, bringing the Kingdom of Zod arc to its explosive conclusion in a one-shot, Superman: Kingdom of Zod Special, on September 30.
“Kingdom of Zod” brings together DC’s full Super-Family for a high-stakes battle against one of Superman’s greatest foes and features the return of the Man of Tomorrow at a moment when the DC Universe needs him most. Will the Super-Family be able to stand against Zod?
