Plot

What If Superman Had Landed Behind the Iron Curtain?

A Cold War-era twist turns the Man of Steel into a Soviet superpower.

In this acclaimed Elseworlds story by Mark Millar and Dave Johnson, Superman's rocket lands in the USSR — making him the champion of Soviet ideals instead of American ones. As the world teeters on the edge of a different kind of Cold War, Superman faces off against reimagined versions of Lex Luthor, Wonder Woman, Batman, and more in a sharp political thriller that tests the very nature of heroism. With a legacy that still sparks conversation, Superman: Red Son remains a bold take on DC's most iconic figure.

Includes Superman: Red Son #1–3.
