January 5, 2012: JMS Talks "Superman: Earth One - Volume Two"

Superman: Earth One - Vol 2 DC Comics has posted details on the up-coming release of "Superman: Earth One - Volume Two", including two pages of interior artwork. Here's what writer J. Michael Straczynski had to say about the story...

    "Thematically, if Volume One was about Clark figuring out where he belongs, then Volume Two is about Superman trying to figure out where he belongs in all this, even as the world does the same at their end. How far can he push his power before he becomes something other than what he intended to become? In the midst of all this Clark gets his first apartment, becoming entangled with a beautiful woman next door, Lois starts trying to figure out what it is about Clark that doesn't add up, and a new and terrifyingly strong version of the Parasite is born from what was previously a serial killer...and now Superman has to confront someone who is not only as strong as he is, but can drain his power completely. In the aftermath of one of the massive battles that threatens to tear apart Metropolis, Clark for the first time feels what it's like to be normal, to be mortal, to be vulnerable...to be us. In the end, Volume Two is about power: its use and abuse, and its place in the world, to be used for good or for evil."
