In Superman’s Good Guy Gang, eight-year-old Clark Kent is pretty super: super-fast, super-strong, and super-cool! But being so super can also be super lonely, until he meets fellow super-powered kids Kendra Saunders and Guy Gardner, a.k.a. Hawkgirl and Green Lantern! Together, they’ll form a club where other supers can be themselves, test their powers, grow together, and maybe earn some good-guy points along the way. Future books in the series will include Mr. Terrific, Batman, Wonder Woman, and more as the Good Guy Gang grows!
DC’s Superman’s Good Guy Gang 2025 FCBD Special Edition includes a chapter of the new super-powered buddy comedy from the creator behind Death and Sparkles, Rob Justus, and launches DC’s Early Reader initiative timed to DC’s Summer of Superman! Fans will delight in seeing characters from the film featured in this charming story perfect for first-time readers aged 5-7.
First up in DC’s FCBD flipbook, the core-line DC Universe soars into Superman action with the dazzling debut of superstar writer Dan Slott alongside acclaimed artist Rafael Albuquerque and colorist Marcelo Maiolo! In this special “zero issue” installment of the forthcoming Superman Unlimited ongoing series, you will witness the prelude to the biggest Superman comic book adventure of the year, as well as an ominous new threat from the heavens that will change the course of Kryptonian life on planet Earth as we know it!
Then, on the flip side of DC’s FCBD flipbook, DC’s Absolute Universe expands in a new story by Jeff Lemire, Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi. Dark forces begin to gather in the shadows… forces that have been waiting a very long time to shape events and seize control. All the while, a mysterious figure watches—but who is this powerful new character, and what do they want with Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and the rest of the emerging heroes?
DC All In/Absolute Universe 2025 FCBD Special Edition, a flipbook written by Dan Slott and Jeff Lemire with art by Rafael Albuquerque and Marcelo Maiolo (Superman Unlimited), Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi (DC’s Absolute Universe), will be available exclusively at local participating comic shops on May 3 (available while supplies last).
