Without the fortress, without the family, without a home... he's still the Absolute Man of Steel! Spiraling out of the catastrophic events of Absolute Power, a new side of the DC Universe is born — the Absolute Universe! In a different, darker world, Kal-El landed in a remote Kansas field, the last survivor from an alien planet... but even before that moment, nothing unfolded as you'd expect. As he tries to survive in a world seemingly determined to repeat the mistakes of the demolished Krypton, he'll come into conflict with the globe-straddling Lazarus Corporation and its agenda of exploitation... and go fist-to-fist with its brutal army of Peacemakers! Best-selling writer Jason Aaron (Star Wars, Thor, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) is joined by superstar artist Rafa Sandoval (The Flash, Action Comics) to reinvent Superman from the ground up!
