Superman American Alien #1

In my opinion, the best Superman story we have had in a long time. Writer Max Landis breaks down our iconic hero in a brilliant 7 part series. I believe they are up to issue 6. A great read so far!

a 7-issue miniseries chronicling the life of Clark Kent and his development into the archetypal hero he will eventually become. But these are not the stories of the iconic “Superman” as you know him, but of the soft-spoken, charming, often-funny Kansas farm-boy behind the Man of Steel. With the tone of each issue ranging from heartwarming and simple, to frighteningly gritty and violent, to sexy, sun-kissed and funny, SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN is unlike anything you’ve seen before. - DC COMICS

Here we have a back drop of the Smallville farm with young Clark, foreground looming in the cornfields. The famous S imprinted in the grass like a crop circle middle ground.
