This June, Superman, Lobo, and the Superman Family make their final stand against Brainiac and the Brainiac Queen as DC's finale to "House of Brainiac" starts the countdown to Absolute Power this June!
In "Action Comics #1066", it's all hands on deck for the Man of Steel and the Superman Family, now that the Brainiac Queen is alive! Brainiac has created his masterpiece, and all bets are off as Superman and his teammates bear witness to a cosmic horror unlike anything they've ever seen! And after learning the true history of Brainiac, Lobo will have to choose what side he is on before all hell breaks loose!
On sale June 18, part five of "House of Brainiac" is written by Joshua Williamson, with art by Rafa Sandoval, who also provides art for the issue's main cover.

The stakes get raised even higher on June 25, as this incredible story reaches its climax in "Superman #15", also written by Williamson with art by Sandoval. Superman is allied with Lex Luthor, and together they've figured out how to stop Brainiac and his queen, but it will take a great sacrifice. The Man of Steel and one of his greatest enemies will have to do the unthinkable to save their family and friends. This all leads directly into DC's blockbuster summer event, Absolute Power.
