More Man of Steel • Mega Tales #1 Second Printing Problem

Friday, July 6th, 2018

Welcome to Friday’s Mega Comics Group Updates!

More On The Man Of Steel Reboot

Man of SteelReboot #2When is a reboot not a reboot? When the reboot actually started 2 years ago! DC Comics announced a New Era with the release of the 2018 Man of Steel mini series which just wrapped up Wednesday. We all thought this was another new beginning but actually they are picking up on the Superman from 2016’s Rebirth Reboot of the whole DC Universe. So what’s new, you might ask as we did? Well, as near as we have been able to figure out, it’s mostly the fact that the series has a new writer by the name of Brian Michael Bendis.   Bendis is the award winning comics creator, who just happens to be one of the most successful writers who also, for the last 20 years or so, worked mainly for Marvel Comics. Brian’s books have ranked near the top of the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts for most of that time period. Most of that time he lead  a renaissance for Marvel’s Avengers titles. He has been instrumental in bringing you the New Avengers,  Avengers, Mighty Avengers and Dark Avengers. He has also been the primary source for such fan fav projects as  Avengers Versus X-Men, House Of M, Secret War, Secret Invasion, and Siege. This is no small coo which DC publishers Dan DiDio and Jim Lee have pulled off. But don’t get us wrong, this isn’t the only newness of the new Superman line up. There are new characters, new villains and more or less a new direction for the Man of Steel as the mini series by the same name has established.

Most Mega Minions rate it at least an 8 on a scale of 10. We would have given it a 10 but we thought the plot could have been a little tighter and one of the main plot threads, the Metropolis Fire Attacks did not even get close to a resolution. We are sure that was meant as a dangling plot thread to be picked up in the Superman titles but come on, DC! A six issue mini-series which will also be a collected trade paperback should have some closure. Don’t ya think?

We gave you the premise for #1 last week but here it is again ALONG WITH the plot synopsis for each issue: 

“Man of Steel (2018) #1  – A new era begins for Superman as a threat from his earliest origins reemerges to destroy the Last Son of Krypton. As Superman struggles to come to grips with what has happened to his wife and son, he must also face a new threat that’s determined to burn down Metropolis.
Man of SteelReboot #5
Man of Steel (2018) #2  – With an arsonist loose in Metropolis, Superman’s powers are almost useless in finding the culprit. And back at the Daily Planet, everyone wants to know what’s going on with Lois Lane. How can Clark hold on to the secret of what happened to Lois and Jon much longer? 

Man of Steel (2018) #3  – The merciless killer and zealot calling himself Rogol Zaar has searched the cosmos for Superman-and when he reaches the Fortress of Solitude, his actions will cut Superman to the core.

Man of Steel (2018) #4  – Rogol Zaar has committed a string of atrocities across the cosmos that have led him to the Fortress of Solitude-and now Superman and Supergirl plan to crush his schemes! But are even two Kryptonians enough to stop his sinister machinations? 

Man of Steel (2018) #5  – Beaten by Rogol Zaar, his city burning at the hands of an unknown arsonist and the secret of what happened to Lois and Jon drawing closer to revelation-even Superman feels powerless against all that stands before him.

Man of Steel (2018) #6  – The fate of Lois Lane and Jon Kent is revealed! Metropolis’ survival hangs in the balance! And Superman must somehow put an end to Rogol Zaar’s rampage! It’s do-or-die time for the Man of Steel in the final chapter of this explosive miniseries!”  (Source: Comixology.com)

Man of Steel (2018) #1-6 – Page Count 24,  Print and Digital formats available. Release Date May 30, 2018, Age Rating 12+ Only.

If you want to save a little money wait until October and buy the collected edition:

Man of SteelReboot #6“Man of Steel (2018) Collected Trade Paperback  Collects issues #1-6 and stories from DC Nation #0. – Genre-defining author Brian Michael Bendis makes his triumphant debut writing Superman in Man of Steel!

In the aftermath of Dark Nights: Metal, the Man of Steel has been challenged like never before. As he faces his greatest challenge to date, the status quo for Superman will be changed forever! With an all-star team of illustrators including Ivan Reis, Evan “Doc” Shaner, Ryan Sook, Kevin Maguire, Adam Hughes and Jason Fabok, Bendis takes us back to the roots of the Man of Steel and questions the very foundations set 80 years ago by Joe Siegel and Jerry Shuster!

Brian Michael Bendis, the scribe behind some of the greatest comics of all time, including Ultimate Spider-Man, New Avengers and Daredevil, dives headlong into the DC Universe in this precursor to his debuts on both Superman and Action Comics.” (Source: Comixology.com)

MCG Turns Ten!We got our first printed copies of Mega Tales # 1 (2nd Printing)! We got our copies back Saturday, unfortunately there was a mix up at the printer and the cover was wrong. So back to the proverbial printing drawing board. (Groan!) Oh well, maybe we won’t have to wait another month or more like we just did since the book was just on the presses. Unfortunately, as of this writing the new digital downloadable issue is not available either. We think the IndyPlanet and Ka-Blam staff may be off this week for Independence Day, like a lot of folks, since they have not responded to our inquiries as of yet. So we wait… again. Hang in there, web wayfarers!
