Have you been enjoying Superman: Secret Origin as much as Gil has? With art by Gary Frank and writing by Geoff Johns, it really is the perfect place to jump into Superman, as his history is condensed and re-tooled to make sense with the almost 700 issues he’s had in his main title alone. For such an iconic character, he sure has a very screwed up past. However, with Secret Origin Johns attempted to condense it all into one story. Now you can check out a preview of issue #5 from DCU’s The Source, in which they promise that Metallo will take on Superman for the “first” time:
Written by Geoff Johns; Art and cover by Gary Frank and Jon Sibal
Superman versus Metallo — for the first time! Witness the origin of one of Superman’s most-feared foes, as an attack by Lex Luthor goes awry and gives birth to the evil of Metallo. Can an inexperienced Man of Steel handle a foe with a heart of Kryptonite? Meanwhile, Lois Lane and Perry White are close to revealing Luthor as the monster that he is — but are they willing to pay for that truth with their lives?
The book hits stores next week. Keep your eyes peeled for a review from your favorite comic site.
