DC Comics continues to go hard in April, with the Absolute Universe line now double the size it was previously, and the kick-off of the first DC All In crossover, “We Are Yesterday.”

But that’s far from the biggest event of the month: it’s the Summer of Superman, baby! Cool breezes, sweet waves, and nothing but Mans of Steel, all month long.
