October 17, 2012: Game-Changing Back-Up Story in "Action Comics #14"

DC Comics has revealed that next month's #14 issue of "Action Comics" will feature an "explosive and defining revelation" back-up story.

    Regular ACTION COMICS back-up writer Sholly Fisch welcomes aboard the stellar art team of Chris Sprouse and Karl Story for a tale that finds the Man of Steel making a mysterious trip to an observatory. But why is he there? Why would someone so well versed in other planets need the help of an observatory? We asked the back-up story's editor Wil Moss to give us a clue as to what Superman is up to. Take it away, Wil!

    "The back-up in ACTION COMICS #14 is a really terrific little story, but we can't tell you much about it yet," Moss teased. "All we can say is that it's IMPORTANT! Historic, even! Superman has been making these regular trips to an observatory. But why? What is he searching for? Find out this November ... and wait'll you see who's helping him!"

"Action Comics #14" will hit shelves (both physically and digitally) on November 7th.

In other Superman comic book news, DC has also published a five page sneak peek inside next week's "Superman #13".
