 LEX
LUTHOR: MAN OF STEEL #1 (of 5)
Written by Brian Azzarello
Art and cover by Lee Bermejo
Superman has
been called many things, from the defender of Truth, Justice and
the American way to the Big Blue Boy Scout. In the new 5-issue miniseries
LEX LUTHOR: MAN OF STEEL, he’ll be called something he never has
before: a dangerous threat to all humanity!
Fresh off his
dynamic run on SUPERMAN, Brian Azzarello teams up with Lee Bermejo
(BATMAN/DEATHBLOW) for a bold story in which readers get a glimpse
into the mind of Lex Luthor. Long considered one of DC’s most vile
villains, MAN OF STEEL reveals why Luthor chooses to be the proverbial
thorn in Superman’s side — simply put, to save humanity from an
untrusted alien being. Or, as Azzarello himself puts it, “In this
story, Superman is the villain.”
