Originally published in 2004, the 12-issue series SOLO gave some of comics' greatest creators the chance to create stories set in the DC Universe and beyond. Each issue featured one artist, including Tim Sale (BATMAN: THE LONG HALLOWEEN), Paul Pope (BATMAN YEAR ONE HUNDRED), Darwyn Cooke (DC: THE NEW FRONTIER, BEFORE WATCHMEN: MINUTEMEN) and many others. Stories star Batman, Robin, Superman, The Spectre, The Teen Titans and many others, but also include westerns, war stories, science fiction epics, humor and horror, as well as introspective tales from the creators' own lives.

Max Landis, acclaimed screenwriter of the hit film CHRONICLE, presents seven stories from the life of the man who will be the Man of Steel, seven pivotal moments that turned a sometimes good, sometimes angry, sometimes funny, always human, all-American alien into the world's first superhero. THIS IS NOT A SUPERMAN COMIC. This is the story of Clark Kent, a Kansas farm boy who happens to be from another planet. It's the story of a scared young kid with impossible powers, of a teenage delinquent with a lot to learn, of a reporter with a nose for the truth who's keeping the biggest secret the world has ever known. This is not the Superman you know. Not yet. Illustrated by some of the greatest artists in comics today-including Jock (BATMAN: THE BLACK MIRROR), Francis Manapul (DETECTIVE COMICS), Jae Lee (BATMAN/SUPERMAN), Joëlle Jones (LADY KILLER), Nick Dragotta (EAST OF WEST) and more with covers by Ryan Sook (ACTION COMICS)-SUPERMAN: AMERICAN ALIEN tells the very human story of the Last Son of Krypton.

Team 7 in "Blood and Faith." Made up of America's finest military men, this elite strike force served the whims of International Operations, the intelligence organization to end all intelligence organizations, headed by the malevolent Miles Craven.

Gen13 in "...When All the Freaks Come Out!" Rainmaker, Freefall, Grunge, Burnout and Fairchild: these Gen-Active teenagers, first-generation descendants of the original Team 7, were recruited into I.O.'s Project Genesis, a program secretly intended to develop superhumans. Upon discovering that the project was nothing more than a breeding ground for Gen-Actives, they escaped the compound with the help of renegade I.O. agent John Lynch, and to this day remain fugitives. On this particular Halloween, they make their home in a safe house in La Jolla, California, where they are joined by Fairchild's father, Alex... WetWorks in "Berserker." A modern-day version of I.O.'s Team 7, WetWorks went rogue when they were forcibly merged with symbiotic armor while on what their superiors meant to be a suicide mission. The golden armor each member is joined with gives them increased strength, limited invulnerability and a mental link to one another as well as various individual powers. During the period of time in which this adventure takes place, they are in the service of industrialist Armand Waering, in his personal war against the Vampire Nation...
