Kingdom Come Superman

September 5, 2007: “Kingdom Come” Superman in JSA Comics

The Superman from "Kingdom Come" joins the JSA beginning in September's "Justice Society of America #9". Writer Geoff Johns spoke with Newsarama.com about the story. Here's an excerpt from the article...

    "In many ways, this story is almost the opposite of Infinite Crisis," explains Johns, who also penned that tale. "In that story, we had a Superman come here and look down on our world, judging it unfavorably. This Superman sees our world as almost being heaven." Ross quickly points out that while the Superman who joins the Justice Society arrives from the world of Kingdom Come, he comes from a point before the story concluded, a crucially important distinction: "The importance of [Kingdom Come] was that, just like Dark Knight Returns was to have been the very last Batman story, this was the last big story of the DC Universe," explains Ross. "They hang up their costumes at the end. So this is not the guy from after the last page of Kingdom Come; he's pulled right out of the story."
