...FASTER... DC launches the newest addition to its All Star line of comics-where the industry's top creative talents refine the iconic focus of the world's greatest super-heroes. Writer Grant Morrison (JLA , SEVEN SOLDIERS) and artist Frank Quitely (THE AUTHORITY , New X-Men)-the acclaimed team behind JLA: EARTH 2 -are at it once again, this time to strip down the Man of Steel to his timeless, essential elements. The series kicks off with a 12-issue story arc touching on all the classic aspects of the Superman mythology, starting with a daring rescue of a doomed group of helionauts on the surface of the sun. The massive amounts of solar radiation affect Superman in a way no one could possibly anticipate-except Lex Luthor!
