Description

What if Superman had landed in Soviet Russia instead of Kansas? This groundbreaking alternate-history graphic novel reimagines the Man of Steel as a tool of Soviet ideology, exploring how a single change in destiny could reshape the entire DC Universe. Mark Millar's bold narrative examines themes of power, propaganda, and the nature of heroism itself, as Superman's presence transforms the Cold War into an ideological battleground where familiar heroes and villains take on radically different roles. With stunning artwork by Dave Johnson and Walden Wong, Red Son presents a thought-provoking meditation on how circumstances define character and how the same extraordinary power can serve vastly different masters. This is a masterwork of speculative fiction that challenges everything readers think they know about the world's greatest superhero.
