The Joker has hidden a bomb in Gotham-but there might be a bigger explosion if Batman proves his suspicions true, and Catwoman actually knows where it is! It\\u2019s a dangerous secret that threatens to destroy the couple\\u2019s relationship in its early days, and it\\u2019s going to reverberate throughout their time together. In the present day, it will affect how Selina handles Andrea Beaumont, a.k.a. Phantasm, who has a vendetta to carry out against the Clown Prince of Crime, fueled by the righteous fury of a mother who lost her son. And this whole chain of events is what ultimately leads to Catwoman killing The Joker in the future-a secret she can\\u2019t keep from her daughter, Batwoman, much longer. Particularly now that old man Penguin is involved.\\n

\\nSUPERMAN: LOIS AND CLARK\\n
Writer: Dan Jurgens\\n
Artist: Lee Weeks\\n
Publisher: DC Comics\\n
Release Date: September 6, 2016\\n
Cover Price: $17.90\\n
They were the first couple of truth and justice, the Man of Steel and the tough-as-nails reporter who was the love of his life. Then came the Flashpoint\\u2026the Convergence\\u2026and their world was wiped from reality, replaced with the New 52 worlds that make up the Multiverse.\\n
\\nNow Lois and Clark, as well as their young son, Jonathan, have been transported to an Earth much like the one they left behind, yet radically different. An Earth with familiar heroes, familiar faces, familiar names, but entirely different ages and attitudes. An Earth with its own Lois Lane, its own Clark Kent\\u2014its own Superman. An Earth where Superman is distrusted\\u2014and where two Supermen could cause a disaster.\\n
\\nFor years they\\u2019ve stayed below the radar, with Clark fighting evil under the cover of darkness and Lois crusading against crime as an anonymous journalist. But now all their secrets are about to be exposed to a world far harsher than the one they left behind\\u2014and Jonathan is caught in the crossfire. Now only one question remains:\\n
\\nHas the time come for the original Man of Tomorrow to reveal himself?\\n
