📘 Series Summary

Launching as a premier title of The New 52, Batman/Superman reimagines the first meeting and evolving partnership between the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel. Written primarily by Greg Pak, the series begins with a reality-warping odyssey as the young, modern-day heroes are transported to Earth 2, where they encounter older, more experienced versions of themselves. This opening arc, illustrated by the surreal and ethereal art of Jae Lee, set a sophisticated visual tone that distinguished it from other team-up books.

Throughout its 32-issue run, the series explored the fundamental differences in how Bruce and Clark view justice, power, and humanity. It featured major status-quo shifts, including the "First Contact" crossover with Worlds' Finest and the "Truth" arc, where Superman dealt with the loss of his secret identity and a significant reduction in his powers. The series concluded as a critical piece of the "Final Days of Superman" event, leading directly into the DC Rebirth era and solidifying its place as a modern exploration of the world's finest friendship.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • Features the stunning, atmospheric artwork of Jae Lee, creating a uniquely dark and stylized look for the DC Universe.
  • Explores the multiversal first meeting (#1–4) between the heroes and their Earth 2 counterparts.
  • Includes the Doomsday-centric #3.1 issue, providing a terrifying New 52 origin for the beast that killed Superman.
  • Utilizes experimental layouts, including horizontal "landscape" storytelling in the Toymaster arc (#5–7).
  • Serves as a pivotal chapter in the "Final Days of Superman" (#31–32), leading to the character's rebirth.
  • Showcases an incredible range of variant covers by legends like Jim Lee, Kenneth Rocafort, and Neal Adams.
