Red Son

Book • 2014
Superman: Red Son presents an alternate reality where Superman's rocket ship lands in the Soviet Union instead of the United States.

Mark Millar's story explores the profound impact of this change on the world, as Superman becomes a symbol of communist ideals.

The comic book delves into themes of political ideology, power, and the nature of heroism in a world divided by the Cold War. Red Son offers a unique and thought-provoking twist on the Superman mythos, examining the complexities of utopia and the potential for both good and evil in any political system.
