Christopher Reeve and Richard Donner’s Man of Steel returns in preview of Superman ’78 #1

August 20, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

DC Comics is set to make us believe a man can fly once again this coming Tuesday as it returns to the Richard Donner / Christopher Reeve continuity of Superman: The Movie to launch its new six-part series Superman ’78; check out a preview of the first issue here…

Fly into director Richard Donner’s Superman once more in Superman ’78! Written by Robert Venditti (Superman: Man of Tomorrow) and drawn by Wilfredo Torres (Batman ’66), Superman ’78 tells a brand-new adventure in the world of the beloved film. A bright, shining day in Metropolis is interrupted by a mysterious drone that crash-lands in the city and starts wreaking havoc. This looks like a job for Superman! But where did the metallic menace come from, what is its purpose, and who is Brainiac?

Superman ’78 #1 goes on sale on August 24th.
