Super Sons – Planet of the Capes | Comics

Robin takes Superboy out for training but an emergency came up that even overwhelms the Teen Titans.

In Metropolis, Lois Lane was packing Jon some snacks before he goes out patrolling. She reminds him to be at home by time and asks Clark if they are doing the right thing, to which he points out that it is for the better to be open to Jon.

Superboy joins Robin on a rooftop as he is about to receive training on the duties of a hero. They look out for jaywalking, stop bag snatchers, rescuing cats and changing tires for people but where Damian was rude, Jon charms people with his well behavior and mannerism.

After finishing their rounds, Robin was trying to call his teammates on Teen Titans but Beast Boy came from behind as a cat, freaking Jon out before introducing Aqualad, Raven and Starfire to him. They came here seeking The Boy Wonder for an emergency and he ditched the Boy of Steel saying its Titans business.

They head to the Hell's Gate section of town while Jon gets back home a minute early. Lois heads to Daily Planet to cover a story and Superman was already out with Justice League, leaving him alone at home.

Following tracks of some weird energy signature, Raven comes near a wall and then suddenly, a hand reaches out and grabs her out. The team came under attack by two villains Atom-Master and Faceless Hunter, who make a quick work of them before the Titans could coordinate and then their third member, Time Commander reveals himself to the crowd.

On behalf of their team of Forgotten Villains, they wish to deliver a message from their master Kraklow and caused Damian to rapidly age. A sleeping Jon wakes up when an elderly Robin shows up at his doorstep with his beaten teammates looking for his assistance.

He says that he is not even a teen and Garfield points out that Damian is too old now, which is ironic. Robin approves Superboy joining their band and elsewhere, villainous magician Kraklow was waiting for them to bring help from elder heroes, like Justice League.

Apparently, he was visited by his elder-self, who handed him over a box full of mud from a dead Multiverse to create these artificial villains from his visions and make a name for him. So, he started walking a path of never being forgotten, at his Rebirth!

Superboy breaks in to their secret lair, it is flooded by Aqualad and the villains are slowed down. However, Time Commander gets a hold of things and freezes time to make a run for them but Jon was able to break out of it with his sheer will along with his team.

However, the Super Sons are then drafted into a war of another dimension which is threatened by Yggardis, the Living Planet. Also, they came across two young heroes, Big Shot and Hard Line, who unfolds new secrets about the magician Kraklow they fought earlier.

The next morning, Cobb and Kathy arrives to deliver Bessie's fresh milk for Jon and Damian Wayne is introduced to them as Garth. As he departs, Cobb pats on Krypto's head and it appears that he has some psychic influence on the dog.

Later, Batman is nowhere to be found which even surprises Damian. Robin, Superboy and Superman go on a patrol over Hamilton County to locate Bruce but are interrupted by a giant squid creature they fought before in the arctic (Son of Superman).

With much less effort, the trio handled the situation but it was Jon's brash actions that saved lives in the end. Superman heads to Deadman's Swamp after sending the boys home. Damian and Jon were bickering while they were returning and as it started to become a fight, Kathy intervenes by chocking him up in the air with her telekinesis.

She even managed to redirect Jon's heat-vision. Meanwhile, Superman discovers Batman, Frankenstein, Robin, The Bride and many others stuck in some containment underground. Back home, Lois was getting worried upon having no words from her husband or son and go out investigate.

She is confronted by fellow townspeople Candice, Doc Brooks, Mayor Goodman, Mr. Martinez and Officer Haggart at her house and makes a break for it in the Batmobile using the Hellbat Gauntlet. She was eventually stopped by Cobb Branden and Superman quickly rushed to the spot hearing her cry. Cobb is soon taken care of and Clark flies off with Lois.

She points out that lately, Hamilton County has become a target for various monstrosities and as he tries to help the people, Lois is severely injured in this chaos. Elsewhere, Jon is being forced to watch his friends and family in peril and sheds tears for them but then his mysterious captor came out of shadows and revealed himself as Manchester Black, one of Superman's old enemies.

Superman – Black Dawn

"Black Dawn" marks the fourth Superman storyline of DC Rebirth era following "Multiplicity" and "Trials of the Super Son" from DC Comics. The story takes place on the fourth ongoing volume of Superman in 2017, collecting issues #20-26.

Plotted out by the duo of writers Patrick Gleason (Brightest Day, Sinestro Corps War) and Peter Tomasi (Batman – Arkham Knight, Black Adam – The Dark Age), artist Doug Mahnke (Final Crisis, Justice League Elite) was brought on board to do the illustrations for the arc alongside Gleason, who also wrote several issues for the plot.

Introducing Superboy Black

Even though it was a plot set on solo Superman comic series, the primary focus revolves around Clark's son Jon Kent, the new Superboy. There is even a scene where Clark lectures Jon about the consequences of choices he made much like the way actor Kevin Costner's character Jonathan Kent does to a young Clark Kent in 2013's Man of Steel film.

In pre-Flashpoint reality, Manchester Black used to hang out with his super-team The Elite but this Prime Earth version is aided by the group of Super-Elite. The story will be going onward followed by "Hopes and Fears" storyline as the series advances.

Super Sons – When I Grow Up | Comics

Despite having very little in common among them, Robin and Superboy tries to stop Kid Amazo to take on entire Justice League!

On his way to school with his next-door neighbor Kathy Branden, Jon Kent took side of a bullied boy that led him into a quarrel with few bullies, who arranged a snowball fight to hurt his friends. As Jon was about to lose his cool, the timely intervention of Damian Wayne saved the day, who was disguised as their bus driver and a substitute teacher.

That night, when Batman was going out on patrol, he ditched an enthusiastic Damian behind for falling back on his homework. On Hamilton County, Superman flies off for a Justice League related emergency and Lois sends Jon to his bed afterwards.

Just as he hit the sack, Damian sneaks back on him to take Jon along with him to investigate a case of break-ins at LexCorp, Metropolis which freaked out the latter for a moment. Both Robin and Superboy were making their way onto the top of the tower when they find Lex Luthor floating behind them in his new "Superman" armor.

Since, Jon can't really fly, Robin throws Superboy down for Lex to rescue while he makes it to an unmarked level to look into but found Luthor back on his tail soon enough. These two make an escape but Robin manages to copy the security log before that.

Super Sons – When I Grow Up | Comics

Jon took a look at the log and is able to detect a boy walking inside for the android Amazo and then camera goes dead. The boy is then seen in multiple places at the same time and Robin identifies him as Reggie Meyer using Batman's facial recognition database.

There was an outbreak of the Amazo Virus which grant people power but all of them were cured then (Justice League – Injustice League). Reggie and his family were among the five percent who kept theirs and they formed the team "Super Duffies" to fight villains.

Tracking the last known location of Reggie's family, the Super Sons head to Providence, Rhode Island. Robin was going through some old newspaper articles when Superboy discovered the deceased bodies of Reggie's family and decides to call their dads.

Disagreement on the point led Jon to push Damian away and run into Reggie's younger sister Sara in the woods. Damian thought Jon has come back but it was the Man of Steel standing behind him and The Dark Knight ready to creep on Jon in the jungle.

The hostile attitude of the World's Finest against the Super Sons has proved that they were actually some android doppelgangers sent by Reggie AKA Kid Amazo. Sara being a technopath helps them take down many those robots and explains Reggie's plan of stealing the Amazo Armor from LexCorp next.

Using which he is creating "Amazo" duplicates that can replicate any power they came in contact with. As Robin is still reluctant about calling their dads or the Justice League, he and Jon are quickly surrounded by dozens of duplicates of themselves.

Super Sons – When I Grow Up

After having a few unofficial team-ups to fight crime under the cautious supervision of their over-protective fathers, Robin and Superboy finally have their very own monthly ongoing series titled Super Sons from DC Comics in 2017, which probably is one of the best gift we received from the DC Rebirth run so far.

The first storyline of their official team-up "When I Grow Up" collects issues #01-05 from the series. It is plotted by writer Peter Tomasi (Batman – Arkham Knight, Forever Evil – Arkham War) and he was assisted by artist Jorge Jiménez (Superman – The Final Days of Superman, Superman – Trials of the Super Sons) with his impressive drawing skills.

Super Sons Strike Out

The story focuses on a solo mission Damian Wayne begin on his own when his father left him behind from regular patrol duty but quickly realizing he needs someone to aid him on it and he then approached Jonathan Kent to pick him up as some extra-muscle from Hamilton County while both of their fathers was away.

Aside from Batman and Superman, Alfred Pennyworth and Lois Smith appearing in the story for their very important role of keeping the Super Sons in line. Following the core plot, there is a brawl in the Batcave between these two unsettling youngsters akin to the one seen in "Trials of the Super Sons", to set out their differences.

Superman Reborn | Comics

Following the entire world witnessing "The Final Days of Superman" while a Superman from another world was also present at the scene, a mysterious Clark Kent also showed up later, who is not a Man of Steel though.

During the Doomsday incident at Metropolis, this new "Clark" met Superman and Lex Luthor as they were already handling the situation, both of them very surprised to see him. He then starts having feelings for Lois Lane and she finds every similarity among him and her husband quite uncanny and disturbing as well.

Alarmed by a sudden breach at his Fortress of Solitude, Superman rushes there only to find out that Superwoman is in critical health condition and brought in by his friend Steel. As he tends to see Lana, his nemesis Blanque taunts him by calling his civilian name.

Superman figures out a way to save the life of Superwoman by putting her into a Kryptonian battle armor from Fortress. At the same time, a team of explorers led by Hank Henshaw were trying to locate Superman's Fortress of Solitude but things go wrong for them.

Superman Reborn | Comics

Somewhere else, a secret prison in an undisclosed location of Mister Oz, Tim Drake teases him stating that one of his prisoners has gotten away already. As he goes to investigate towards a tower, he finds numerous drawings and writings for the Man of Steel inside the walls of the tower.

Though this prison still holds monstrous entities like Doomsday and Prophecy, the escaped prisoner seems to have upset Oz quite a great deal. Which means, either this person may cause great peril for Kal-El or may reveal something important to him, that he is not supposed to know right now.

Meanwhile, realizing about his feelings towards Lois, the mysterious Clark eventually proposes her, only to be declined politely. He follows Lois back to her home after she rejected his proposal of marriage, Clark reaches at Smith Farm, Hamilton County to discover that she already have a family and it really cracked him up badly.

Lois was celebrating her marriage anniversary with her husband and son, when finally coming to the realization of his true identity after long. The other Clark shows up at their front door and leaves a photo album titled "The Kents" before disappearing to thin air just like a ghost.

They suddenly saw fire in their house and then everything around them starts getting erased, including their son Jon. Superman and Lois heads straight to Metropolis seeking for answers and Clark's doppelganger was not present there at his own apartment.

Out of the blue, he showed up there and managed to stop an enraged Superman from attacking him. According to him, he was locked up in that cell because Man of Steel never cared for him and then he even solved Clark's secret identity problem.

When Kal-El fails to deduce who this mysterious fellow really is, he starts dropping hints by frequently changing into Bizarro, Brainiac, Cyborg Superman, Doomsday, Lex Luthor, Mongul and Parasite one by one, asking to say his name. Superman eventually figured out it was his old enemy Mister Mxyzptlk and the imp erased Jon from existence for big-blue forgetting him.

He came across a being from below ground known as Swamp Thing, who makes his presence known and states after seeing Superman at the first glance that the latter doesn't belong here, on this plane of reality. After their initial introduction, Clark calls him by the name of Dr. Alec Holland, who also points out an obvious that the former is not a Man of Steel from this world.

Because of his unique power of elemental control, Dr. Holland sensed an anomaly within him and found Clark in Hamilton County. Holland believes that a disturbance in "The Green" is what brought him here and as Superman assures he means no harm.

When he placed his hand on Swamp Thing, it released Kryptonian blue energy, overwhelming Holland.

The other night, when Clark was driving his home to Hamilton County, he stumbles onto a badly beaten Superman of Earth-30 (Red Son), who was being chased by the Gatherers. Even though Clark was not on their list, they fought back these "Gatherers" together, who came following the Soviet Superman here.

As he retreated from their clutches, he heard Kenan Kong is next on their list. At that moment, Justice League Incarnate arrives to the scene from future and Superman of Earth-23 meets Superman of New Earth.

The JLI briefly explains to him what's happening around here before they all go and try to help Kenan Kong in Henan Province but failed to save him. In the House of Heroes, Justice League Incarnate was explaining the entire situation to Superman, while the Gatherers were busy abducting other Supermen from different worlds for their master, Prophecy.

So, they go to every other worlds to talk to each Superman counterpart and assemble them all on Ultima Thule; a plane outside space and time. They collectively decide to lure their enemy out using their combined power and then face him together.

However, Superman teleports others away to save them at the final moment and faces the being alone in space-time continuum. Even though Prophecy detects Superman as an anomaly, he is immediately drained off his power and rendered weak.

Still, he assures the other powerless captive brethren that he has one trick left. The monstrous entity believes that a great catastrophe is on the horizon and if he can collect the power of all the Superman of the Multiverse, he might have a fighting chance against that.
