Summary

"Fly into director Richard Donner's Superman once more in Superman '78, telling a brand-new adventure set in the world of the beloved film. A bright, shining day in Metropolis is interrupted by a mysterious drone that crash-lands in the city and starts wreaking havoc. This looks like a job for Superman! But where did the metallic menace come from, what is its purpose, and who is Brainiac? As Metropolis is invaded by this being and its mechanical drones, Superman must make a life-changing sacrifice and leave Earth once and for all. But once aboard Brainiac's ship, the Man of Steel finds he might not be the last son of Krypton like he believed." -- Back cover"In the late 1970s moviegoers were thrilled by the words "You'll believe a man can fly!," which introduced actor Christopher Reeve as the silver screen's charming new Man of Steel. These adventures are set in a world where superheroes are strange, thrilling, and romantic. These stories, written by comics veteran Robert Venditti (Hawkman, Green Lantern, Justice League) with crisply drawn art by Wilfredo Torres, feature colorful villains like Brainiac and Lex Luthor, as well as the heroism of Superman and the determined grit of reporter Lois Lane."--, Provided by publisher
