Issue Description
Superman Triangle #38 for 1994. A Zero Month crossover issue. As Clark Kent and Lois Lane move into their new apartment, Clark reminisces about his times in Smallville. In particular, his memories turn to Kenny Braverman, a friend who always came in second behind Clark. Little does Clark know that Kenny has now become the super-villain Conduit, and is gunning for Clark. Clark has won a Baldy Award, and Conduit has set up a bomb at the awards ceremony. Luckily, Superman has come in to save the day, rescuing everyone at the awards. Superman defeats Conduit’s agents that continue the assault, but does not discover who is behind the attempt on Clark’s life. When Clark returns to his apartment, he finds his photo with a knife through it attached to his door. Now, Clark is sure someone is gunning for him as Clark Kent, not Superman.

Volume Description
Starring: Clark Kent / Kal-El as Superman
For the second time in his history, Superman's self-titled comic saw a first issue. Writer / artist John Byrne's successful landmark Man of Steel mini series had rebooted Superman's history, updating him for the modern comic book landscape, and as a result, drastic changes had swept through the Superman line of comics. The original Superman title had adopted the new name, The Adventures of Superman, but continued the original numbering of its long and storied history. Popular writer Marv Wolfman and artist Jerry Ordway handled the creative chores on that particular title. Meanwhile Action Comics continued, keeping its original numbering, but that too was now written and drawn by Byrne. And last but not least, a new series was introduced, simply titled Superman - again written and drawn by the prolific Mr Byrne.
Not resting on his laurels after the success of the sweeping changes made during the Man of Steel, Byrne started Superman's new title off with the re-introduction of Metallo, a powerful cyborg with a hatred for the Man of Tomorrow and possessing a kryptonite heart. It was a dangerous new world for the Last Son of Krypton, but the reboot continued to prove an overwhelming success. This second series of Superman became a mainstay for DC - running 226 issues before it ended in April 2006.
