Superman Unlimited Vol. 2: This Looks Like a Job...

When the ground shifts beneath an entire planet, only Superman can rise above it. Eisner Award-winning writer Dan Slott (Amazing Spider-Man) and artists Lucas Meyer (Titans) and Mike Norton (Krypto: The Last Dog of Krypton) deliver the latest chapter in a charged, character-driven saga that reimagines the world around the Man of Steel.

With Smallville under a supernatural siege, the new Steelworks facility constructed in Superman’s hometown stands at the center of the conflict. Could it be a possible solution, or a potential cause?! 

And just as tensions begin to ease, Superman and guest star Guy Gardner must join forces to save Simon Stagg’s space yacht launch—and Lois—from a deadly cosmic threat!

Then, the new, mysterious Prankster was the DC Universe's deadliest assassin, with a perfect kill record…until Superman saved a target. Now Superman is his next mark. This story redefines the Prankster as a top-tier rogue—no joke!

Plus, after Livewire’s prison release, an unholy alliance and unexpected romance with the Creeper ignites in a super-villain battle. Witness the Wiretap’s rise in Superman: Chains of Love Special!
