About this ebook

Jonathan Kent has experienced a lot in his young life. He’s traveled the galaxies with his Kryptonian grandfather and lived in the future with the Legion of Super-Heroes, who were intent on training him for the day his father, Clark Kent, could no longer be Superman. There is a hole in the Legion’s history that prevents Jon from knowing exactly when that will happen, but all signs point to it being very soon. It’s time for the son to wear the cape of his father and bear the symbol of hope that has told the world who Superman really is. Join writer Tom Taylor (Nightwing, DCeased) and artist John Timms (Infinite Frontier) as they usher in a whole new era for the House of El! Also, “Tales of Metropolis” continues. Jimmy Olsen gathers his misfit heroes, including Ambush Bug and Gangbuster, to find out who the Projectress really is and why she set her sights on Bibbo!

Ratings and reviews

Just another example of "Woke Going Broke." Stay true to the CHARACTERS by not pandering to so-called SJW's who (apparently) don't read or watch anyway. I'm ALL FOR everyone having characters to relate to. In fact, isn't that how/why NEW characters were created in the first place? Stop trying to teach the pig to sing...

Imposter protagonist (Not Superman) as the rebooted (overly gay and WOKE) revamping of Jon Kent just isn't likable nor as compelling would not recommend reading this run.

Disappointed.
