DC Comics has simply introduced that as a part of their 2024 Superman Superstars initiative inside their Superman line of comics which continues from July to September, the all-star pairing of Gail Simone and Eddy Barrows as the following artistic workforce on Action Comics.
The duo will likely be telling a brand new Superman story taking place originally of the Man of Steel’s action-packed profession in“Superman and the Challenge from the Stars,” following the arcs from Jason Aaron and John Timms (“I, Bizarro”) and Joshua Williamson and Rafa Sandoval (“House of Brainiac”).
The first of Simone and Barrows’s three points kicks off when a massively highly effective alien race makes Earth their enviornment as Superman, DC’s Man of Steel, should stand alone towards unimaginable challenges that threaten places all all over the world and the lives of these he loves.
Action Comics #1067 begins a not-to-be missed epic story of Superman’s power, wit, and resourcefulness in an early stage of his public profession!
In the press launch from DC Comics asserting the artistic duo, Simone had this to say about writing the Man Of Steel:
“I love the classic Superman cast, and this story is deliberately meant to echo my all-time favorite Superman time period. We didn’t want to tell a quiet story of Superman in a diner; we wanted to have a massive threat, a war taking place all over the world, and only Superman could possibly protect his adopted planet. It is unapologetically huge in scope and fun as hell, with one of the best art teams I’ve ever worked with…Eddy Barrows, Danny Miki, and Rex Lokus on colors!”
Artist Eddie Barrows added:
“For me talking about Action Comics is something that goes beyond the title itself. I remember when I was 7 years old, I was playing on the sidewalk, and suddenly I was run over by a truck, right there. I spent 3 days fighting for my life, and during that whole year that followed I remained in bed, doing lots of physiotherapy, lots of meds and exams. Going to the doctors was a very regular thing. And it was during that time that Superman came to my life, reading Action Comics. Kal-El became a good friend of mine, making my days better. His adventures and his behavior were things that stuck with me! Reading his stories were the highlight of my days, for a 7-year-old recovering from an accident like I was. Back then I wouldn’t have imagined that one day I would be helping to build his legacy: illustrating his stories. The stories of my all-time favorite superhero… SUPERMAN!”
