Released: 11th March 2025. Inspired by the revered 1978 film Superman: The Movie, starring Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, and Gene Hackman. Continues in the tradition of DC's very successful Batman '66 comics series. DC follows the very successful Batman '66 with the new Superman '78, inspired by the Man of Steel's movie adventures starring Christopher Reeve.
