DC:

Tom Taylor has been keeping a secret from you. When the critically acclaimed writer announced that he would be continuing Jonathan Kent’s story in Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent, he didn’t tell you why. Not only will the miniseries see a rematch between Jon and Ultraman, but it will also take DC’s younger Superman to a place he’s never been before. The battle with Ultraman will force Jon to explore the multiverse, and one of the places he’ll end up will be greatly familiar to fans of Taylor and his work for DC. It’s a place of war, a place of betrayal, and a place of…Injustice.

Yes, we can finally reveal that Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent not only continues Jon’s story that Taylor began in Superman: Son of Kal-El, but also builds on the legacy of storytelling he crafted for the popular DC video game franchise, which hasn’t been seen in a DC comic book since the Injustice 2 series concluded in 2018. But how exactly will Jon find himself in Injustice’s harrowing world, in which Batman finds himself fighting for survival against a tyrant Superman? We were as curious as you, so we sat down with Taylor for an exclusive interview about the upcoming series and its newly revealed twist.

I have to say, Taylor’s run on Injustice was SHOCKINGLY good for a video game tie-in comic, and I’ve enjoyed his run with the Jon Kent Superman*, so odds are this could be a decent read.

But really, I just want to know what the heck the NetherRealm team is working on post Mortal Kombat 11, and this just ads to the frothing need for an update!

 

*it’s not as good as his run on Nightwing, which is some all-timer level stuff.
