This makes us anxious to see how the Man of Steel will interact with the of The Authority and how this dynamic will play out.

With the imminent arrival of these mighty heroes, expect an explosive mix of action, intrigue and epic challenges. The combination of the emblematic Superman and the fearless and rebellious attitude of The Authority promises to take the DC Universe to a new level of adventure.
