It’s not the first time Tom King has written Superman; he also appeared in his Batman and Wonder Woman runs, and he wrote the Up In The Sky Superman graphic novel with Andy Kubert. Tom King and Mitch Gerads’ collaboration began in 2015 with The Sheriff of Babylon for DC Vertigo, when then-DC Editor Jamie Rich connected them after pitching the concept as “Justified meets Zero Dark Thirty.” It was Tom King’s first full comic series as a solo writer, and the pair clicked. Their next major project was the 12-issue Mister Miracle in 2017, which reimagined Jack Kirby’s Fourth World escape artist Scott Free as a story about trauma, depression, and family, and swept the 2019 Eisner Awards, and now an adult-animated series adaptation. They continued working together regularly on Strange Adventures, Heroes in Crisis, lots of Batman projects, including Tom King’s ongoing Batman run, the one-shot One Bad Day: The Riddler and The Winning Card in Batman: The Brave and the Bold. And now\u2026. Superman Something!<\/p>\n
