Absolute Superman Vol. 1: Last Dust of Krypton (Absolute Universe)

Descripción

From the Publisher Absolute Superman mission statement by writer Jason Aaron: This is the story of Kal-El, an immigrant, coming of age in the world of today. When Krypton explodes and Kal-El’s rocket lands on Earth, in the fields of Kansas, he’s found by the kindly Kents. But that doesn’t lead to the sort of idyllic upbringing we’re used to seeing in Superman’s origin. Instead, Kal-El will spend years on the run across the far corners of the globe, living among the planet’s most impoverished and persecuted peoples, working in mines and corporate-owned farms, fighting to protect the lost and unwanted, getting glimpses from all different cultures of the sort of family life and identity he lost when his homeworld exploded, always yearning to belong, somewhere, anywhere. This is a Kal-El who’s a little bit Mowgli, something of a wild boy, with long, unkempt hair and a sometimes fierce and snarling disposition. Given everything he’s been through, he’s a bit edgier and angrier than the Superman we’re used to. But at the same time, he’s a lot like Clark Kent: shy and awkward and a bit clumsy, as he’s still learning to live with his burgeoning powers. Kal-El is very genuinely both of these personas, the meek and the wild, without either one being an affectation. He’s like a professional athlete who seems quiet and docile off the field, but becomes a focused beast whenever the whistle blows. He’s a walking, building-leaping contradiction in some ways, the alien boy who’s completely clueless about some of the most basic earthly customs, yet has learned a dozen languages during his travels and has seen more of the Earth and its wonders than any human alive.
