Publication history
[edit]In July 2024, a Superman-focused comic book series titled Absolute Superman, written by Jason Aaron and illustrated by Rafa Sandoval, was announced as part of DC Comics's Absolute Universe (AU) imprint.[2] Rafael Albuquerque was originally set to illustrate Absolute Superman, but had to pull out of the project due to severe floods in his home country of Brazil, with Sandoval being brought onto the project a month before the comic's announcement.[3]
Absolute Superman is scheduled to begin publication on November 6, 2024.[4]
