This looks like something Supes fans won't want to miss. Here's just a few of the highlights of the issue:

• Origin Story: We dive into the long, hard making of a hero with a look back at how Superman’s mythology evolved over the years. Find out how animation gave him the ability to fly, where his chrome-domed nemesis Lex Luthor first appeared, and how radio made Kryptonite his one and only weakness.

• Superman Returns director Bryan Singer on the “whimsical” tone of his attempted reboot of the hero — why “not everyone responded.”

• Man of Steel producer Christopher Nolan on the “science fiction-based” approach to retelling Superman’s origin as an alien invader saga.

• Cavill on how a lonely life as a boarding school student fueled his performance as Superman, the ultimate outsider.


Man Of Steel is out on Friday, and you can read my thoughts on it HERE.
