    Alien Extinction! last edited by BuffaloDelorean on 11/07/23 12:00PM View full history

    Once again, Superman is confronted by Helspont, but this time the Daemonite Lord isn't messing around. He comes with revelations of his true power and his personal connection to the Earth's ancient history. As tensions build and offers are extended, it is clear that Helspont has only one plan for the human race, and it seems that Superman is helpless to stop him!

    Daemonite Daze 0

    Superman Annual #1 officially kicks off the Scott Lobdell era of Superman comics, and it doesn’t start small. Lobdell provided the plot for this one while his long-time partner in crime, Fabian Nicieza, took scripting duties. To begin with, I enjoyed the fact that this issue was an action-packed, sci-fi romp. It was fun to see Superman battle against Helspont and his Daemonite legions, and struggle in the process.
