Genre-defining author Brian Michael Bendis makes his triumphant debut at DC Comics, as a new evil comes to Earth looking for Superman to finish the mission he started long ago: exterminating the Kryptonian plague!

From New York Times best-selling writer Brian Michael Bendis comes a new story of Superman. The Last Son of Krypton is about to meet his home planet's nemesis!

A remorseless killer called Rogol Zaar has arrived on Earth, bringing wide-scale death and destruction in his wake. Only Superman and his cousin, Supergirl, stand between Zaar and the completion of his mission--the complete annihilation of the Kryptonian race. But even as Kal-El and Kara struggle to contain this new existential threat, the world's greatest superhero faces a completely different challenge in his adopted home city of Metropolis, where Clark Kent still lives and works--but without his wife and son. The stage is set for a reckoning like nothing Superman has ever faced--and everything that matters to the Man of Steel hangs in the balance!

Collects The Man of Steel #1-6 and stories from DC Nation #0 and Action Comics #1000.
