Jonathan Kent has experienced a lot in his young life. He’s traveled the galaxies with his Kryptonian grandfather and lived in the future with the Legion of Super-Heroes, who were intent on training him for the day his father, Clark Kent, could no longer be Superman. There is a hole in the Legion’s history that prevents Jon from knowing exactly when that will happen, but all signs point to it being very soon. It’s time for the son to wear the cape of his father and bear the symbol of hope that has told the world who Superman really is. Join writer Tom Taylor (Nightwing, DCeased) and artist John Timms (Infinite Frontier) as they usher in a whole new era for the House of El! Also, “Tales of Metropolis” continues. Jimmy Olsen gathers his misfit heroes, including Ambush Bug and Gangbuster, to find out who the Projectress really is and why she set her sights on Bibbo!

Ohmygoodness, THIS is what I want more of in comics. The hope! Touching and funny and wholesome and earnest.
That whole sequence with young Jon and Nightwing, so sweet, I'm crying! Honestly, all the Jon working with Nightwing moments. Jon being sassy with Lex Luthor, yes please. The love interest just, having a mission, also supportive of Jon, yes. Lois's badassery and whole hearted acceptance of her son's sexuality. 🥰
While I'm ecstatic that there's one more recent volume in this series my library actually has, I would also gleefully accept any suggestions for comics that match this series' vibes. Need not be other Superman or Batman volumes, I'm open to investigating other super heroes. 😊
