It seems that DC Comics and Tom Taylor has been keeping a secret from us all. Back when Taylor confirmed he wasn’t yet done with the story of young Jonathan Kent, he held back a few key details on what would come next…
Not only will the Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent miniseries see a rematch between Jon and Ultraman, but it will also take DC’s younger Superman to a place he’s never been before. The battle with Ultraman will force Jon to explore the multiverse, and one of the places he’ll end up will be greatly familiar to fans of Taylor and his work for DC. It’s a place of war, a place of betrayal, and a place of…Injustice.
Not only does the series continue Jon’s story which Taylor began in Superman: Son of Kal-El, but it also builds on the legacy of storytelling he crafted for the popular DC video game franchise. A storyline which hasn’t been seen in a DC comic book since the Injustice 2 series which concluded in 2018. But how exactly will Jon find himself in Injustice’s harrowing world, in which Batman finds himself fighting for survival against a tyrant Superman?
Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #1 by Tom Taylor, Clayton Henry and Jordie Bellaire will be available in print and as a digital comic book on March 7, 2023.
