About the Book

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.
