Discover what secret Perry White and Lex Luthor share...a secret that affects every man, woman and child who inhabit The World of Metropolis. Written by John Byrne, with art by Winslow Mortimer, Dick Giordano and Frank McLaughlin, The World of Metropolis will show you the way around one of the most fascinating cities in the world...and into the souls of two of its most intriguing citizens.

Elseworlds. The boyhood dreams of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster combine with the vision of renowned filmmaker Fritz Lang in Superman's Metropolis, a remarkable Elseworlds graphic novel setting the Man of Tomorrow in the City of Tomorrow. Ted McKeever's beautiful painted art superbly evokes the powerful imagery of Lang's film and the classic heroism of the Superman comics in the story adapted by frequent Moebius collaborators Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier, and comics legend Roy Thomas. Starring Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Lex Luthor, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White and others, this science fiction parable celebrates the triumph of the human spirit against an oppressive ruling class, in which only the promise of a superman yet-to-come gives hope to the workers slaving in the bowels of the city. Written by Jean-Marc and Randy Lofficier, and Roy Thomas. Painted art and cover by Ted McKeever. FC, 64 pg. Prestige Format. Cover price $5.95.

By Monte Schulz. Cover by Angela Lizon (after Jan Van Huysum).

Metropolis, the sixth prose fiction novel by Monte Schulz, is a dystopian narrative of love in a time of war and moral disintegration.

Regency College senior Julian Brehm's uneventful student life is derailed when he falls for Nina Rinaldi, a beautiful young revolutionary engaged in political activism against the authoritarian regime that rules the country and wages a deceitful, distracting war. Julian's love for - and moral alliance to - Nina eventually leads him into a vast undercity beneath the metropolis.

Then, east by train and into the war zone itself, where mortal danger in that expanding cemetery of millions threatens Julian's life; what he witnesses will alter how he perceives the Republic and ultimately his fate within it. Julian's adventure can be seen as our own, a world of vacillating morality and unceasing violence. Apathy and passion. Fear and courage of purpose.

Julian's is a hero's journey into the dark unknown. A love story, which extends in many directions. A war novel of incredible scope and horror. A suspenseful mystery novel with a moral puzzle at its core. And a coming-of-age tale of a young man seeing the world he was born into, more dangerous and more beautiful than he could have ever imagined.

Metropolis is a meditation on the meaning of virtue and goodness in the face of the most monstrous crimes. It could just as easily be the story of us.

1st printing. Story and art by Osamu Tezuka.From Osamu Tezuka, creator of Astro Boy, comes Metropolis, the legendary 1949 graphic novel that inspired the animated fame that floored audiences and critics alike. In a not-so-far-off future a beautiful, artifically created girl -- unaware of her non-human background -- searches for the non-existent parents she believes must exist, wandering alone in a world populated by humans and by the slave-driven robots who serve them. Tezuka's key theme of the nature of humanity in a technological society is framed in bold relief, as well as his wry allegorical observations of the Cold War that was escalating when he created Metropolis. A brilliant work of wit and wisdom -- and guest-starring some friends you may recognize from Astro Boy! -- Metropolis is one of graphic fiction's most enduring tales, available for the first time in an English-language edition.
