Superman/Clark Kent returns from space only to find himself stuck in a time travel mystery in a new series from Christopher Priest and Carlo Pagulayan.

DC announced Superman: Lost, a new ten-issue series from Priest and Pagulayan. The series sees Superman entangled in a mystery involving time travel after he becomes trapped in space for two decades. The synopsis for Superman: Lost reads, "SUPERMAN’S ODYSSEY OF SOLITUDE! After Superman is called away on a routine Justice League mission, Lois Lane awakens to find a complete stranger standing in her living room. The Man of Steel, home much sooner than expected, reveals he has, in fact, been lost in space for 20 years. Nothing and no one seem familiar to him anymore, and the timeless bond between them has been severed...or has it? Can love conquer all? Superman’s 85th-anniversary celebration continues with this all new blockbuster 10-issue series from the creators of the Eisner-nominated Deathstroke series!"

?Superman: Lost has been several years in the making and it’s been incredibly difficult for me to keep quiet about this," Priest said. "I am absolutely delighted to be reunited with my Deathstroke team as we explore the emotional toll a tragic loss exacts. A man of steel, from an alien species, is ultimately the most human among us. And finding his way home is only the beginning."

Superman Takes Over DC in 2023

Superman: Lost is one of several new series starring the Last Son of Krypton releasing in 2023. The publisher's Action Comics series will enter into a new era when Clark and his son, Jon Kent, have their secret identities restored in Action Comics #1050 (by Phillip Kennedy Johnson, Tom Taylor, Joshua Williamson, Mike Perkins, Clayton Henry and Nick Dragotta). In the following issue, DC will begin including three different stories within each issue of Action Comics.

Williamson is also teaming with Jamal Campbell for a new Superman ongoing series which launches in February 2023. "Superman has returned to Metropolis and his greatest enemy Lex Luthor is finally behind bars," DC previously said of the series. "The future of the Superman family has never been brighter! As Clark Kent settles back into his life, iconic and new enemies erupt from the shadows to strike down the Man of Steel!"
