Released in August 1998, this three-part series was a sleeper hit. Written by John Francis Moore and penciled by Kieron Dwyer from a concept by Kieron Dwyer. Inked by Hilary Barta, colored by Trish Mulvihill, lettered by Steve Dutro, separations by Heroic Images. Prestige format, three 48-page books, to be recollected as a trade paperback, Summer 1999.
Based on Jack Kirby's seminal DC Comics series The New Gods, et al, Superman:The Dark Side is an Elseworld rumination on the hypothetical addition of Kal-El into the New Gods mythos. Sent out from his dying homeworld Krypton, baby Kal-El's rocket is diverted from its course towards Earth, landing on Apokolips. There, he is found and raised by Darkseid, molded into a killing machine for the battle between Apokolips and its sister world, New Genesis.
What path will Kal-El chose when confronted with the consequences of his dark actions--will he remain a mindless slave of Darkseid or will he become...Superman?
