Superman vs. Doomsday – the battle begins this week in Superman: Doomed #1.

 

The Man of Steel takes on the Monster of Krypton for the first time in The New 52 but this fight is sure to bring up memories and comparisons to one of the greatest epics of comic book history.

 

Doomsday beat Kal El to death in the classic storyline The Death of Superman. Clark came back but the image of Lois holding a broken, beaten icon will never burn away from some fans.

Here’s the breakdown of the big event kicking off this week from DC Comics with new art from the Action and Superman/Wonder Woman: Continue reading SUPERMAN Is DOOMED
