The Man of Steel's jump to the future is anything but idyllic as he finds a world torn apart by strife and a populace that has turned on the Legion of Super-Heroes - and it's all because of Superman! But what went wrong, and how can Superman begin to fix it when he's Public Enemy #1? Retailers please note: This issue will feature two covers that may be ordered separately.
