Superman
The world’s most famous superhero, Superman’s adventures protecting Metropolis have thrilled readers worldwide for over sixty years! Now, in this hilarious new graphic novel, co-written by Monty Python legend John Cleese, the Man of Steel's rocket-ship crashlands not in Smallville, but in Weston-super-Mare! Adopted by the kindly Clark family, young Colin learns to hide his powers... but when he's forced to save the day, the nation has one question — what will the neighbours think?

But when Colin grows up, he becomes a mild-mannered reporter for savage tabloid The Daily Smear , and finds himself drawn to helping the helpless... not to mention winning the Ashes, making the trains run on time, and performing other equally unlikely feats! Meeting the gorgeous journalist Louisa Lane-Ferret, young Colin falls head over heels in love, but she only has eyes for Superman. And when a childhood cricketing accident comes back to haunt Colin in the fearsome form of the Bat-Man, can the Superman of Suburbia save the day?
