Exclusive Preview: Superman: Up in the Sky #5

Tom King and artist Andy Kubert have teamed up to tell an extended story about the Last Son of Krypton. While Superman normally stays on Earth, he’s had to temporarily abandon his adopted planet in Up in the Sky. A young girl was kidnapped and taken into space, and Superman has vowed to bring her home. Unfortunately, he may have to compromise himself to keep that promise.

In Superhero Hype’s exclusive preview from Superman: Up in the Sky #5, the Man of Steel makes an agreement with Darkseid. However, the evil god of Apokolips never gives favors without a price. Superman also encounters a dying alien whose sole wish is to be put out of his misery.
