In this extra-sized issue, Val-Zod finally accepts his role as the new Superman of Earth 2! But is this novice any match for the twisted, brutal original Superman of Earth 2? Apokolips and the forces of Darkseid are looming, we see one Kryptonian against another – and the weight of the world is on them both!

Below, take a look as Val-Zod comes face to face with Kal-El. Can the Kryptonians both survive this encounter? Sound off in the comments section about the fate of Earth 2’s Supermen!
