Superman: The World Brings Global Creators Together to Celebrate Clark Kent

The Summer of Superman is Going Strong with Brand-New International Launch

As most Superman fans know, this is an exciting time for the Big Blue Boy Scout. James Gunn's Superman film is just months away and everyone is starting to feel the hype. To honor its biggest icon and to capitalize on the hype, DC Comics has announced the Summer of Superman, a months-long initiative intended to push the entire Superman line. The publisher has promised this summer would be full of exciting surprises for fans of the Man of Steel, including new ongoing series and miniseries, not to mention bold, new directions for Superman comics currently being published.

This anthology is filled with stories of Superman traveling the world, going to the homelands of the creative teams involved, such as India, Spain, Cameroon, Japan and more. Fans can expect to see Clark Kent not just saving the day and protecting the people of the world, but engaging with everyone he meets, learning about their homes and their cultures. While there have been dozens, if not hundreds, of stories of Clark visiting different parts of the Earth,Superman: The World is an opportunity to both celebrate the iconic hero and the planet that loves him so much.

International Creators Teach the Man of Steel (And Readers) About the World

If there's one thing fans know about Superman, it's that he doesn't belong to any one culture. He belongs to everyone and he's inspired creators in virtually every corner of the globe. This anthology is a great way to show what he means to comic creators everywhere and, at the same time, introduce and educate readers about other cultures. Clark Kent considers himself a student of the world, so a book that showcases the hero experiencing and learning about these cultures for himself is quite possibly the best way to honor a hero as beloved as Superman.

Superman: The World is available internationally on June 25th from DC Comics and others.
