Man and Superman

Clark Kent is not ready to be a hero. But he has no choice. The time has come for him to choose between fear and hope...between ordinary and extraordinary...between man and Superman. Clark Kent has come to Metropolis like any other small-town boy chasing his dreams. Grabbing any work he can find, he struggles to become a reporter for the Daily Planet like his journalistic idol Lois Lane...and to figure out a way to use his incredible hidden powers to help the city he loves. Yet someone else has come to Metropolis with far more sinister plans in mind. Using cutting-edge technology, this unknown terrorist aims to bring the city to its knees...and remake it in his own egomaniacal image. DC Comics proudly presents legendary writer Marv Wolfman's tale of the Man of Steel's earliest days as a superhero, beautifully illustrated by the renowned Claudio Castellini. Man and Superman Deluxe Edition collects the complete saga, remastered by Castellini with an introduction by Wolfman, and an extensive behind-the-scenes section curated by both writer and artist. Nearly ten years in the making, this edition explores the evolution of the story and art for this modern classic as Wolfman and Castellini take you on a journey through their process. Also collects the complete script for the first chapter by Wolfman.

One of the most prolific and influential writers in modern comics, Marv Wolfman began his career as an artist. Realizing that his talents lay more in writing the stories than in drawing them, Wolfman soon became known for his carefully crafted, character-driven tales. In a career that has spanned nearly 30 years, Wolfman has helped shape the heroic careers of DC Comics' Green Lantern, Blackhawk and the original Teen Titans, as well as Marvel Comics' Fantastic Four, Spider-Man and Nova. In addition to co-creating The New Teen Titans and the universe-shattering Crisis on Infinite Earths with George Perez, Wolfman was instrumental in the revamp of Superman after Crisis , the development of The New Teen Titans spinoff series Vigilante , Deathstroke the Terminator and Team Titans , and created such characters as Blade for Marvel, along with Night Force and the retooled Dial "H" for Hero for DC. In addition to his numerous comic book credits, Wolfman has also written several novels and worked in series television and animation, including the Superman cartoon of the late 1980s and the hit Teen Titans show on Cartoon Network. His novelization of Crisis on Infinite Earths was published in the spring of 2005 by iBooks.
