Críticas

"A wonderful, bold interpretation of a DC icon that aspires to embrace all readers, new and old." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

"In his brilliant take on Superman, de la Peña shows us that there's a chance we'll all need to step up like Clark Kent--with or without a cape."
--Jason Reynolds, New York Times bestselling author of Miles Morales: Spider-Man and Long Way Down

"Matt de la Peña's Superman is the quintessential American alien. Despite being caught between two worlds, he's everything we love about the Man of Steel: courageous, compassionate, and full of hope."
--Gene Luen Yang, author of New Super-Man and National Ambassador for Young People's Literature

"As Clark learns the truth about his past and questions his identity, one thing remains true: Clark will always help those in need. This is a modern and relevant take on Clark Kent's teenage years." --SLJ

"This combination of Superman and De la Peña will fly off shelves, as the award-winning author offers a glimpse into the Man of Steel's beginning as a teenage outsider." --Bookllist

And he’s not the only one with something to hide. When Clark follows the sound of a girl crying, he comes across Gloria Alvarez and learns that people have been disappearing. With his best friend, Lana Lang, at his side, Clark is determined to discover what evil lies below the surface of their town.
