The story, such as it is, begins with Superman already three years into his appearance on earth – branded a ‘metahuman’ among some other beings (confusingly, some of these are man-made, others are aliens, though we’re not quite sure where the aliens came from… but anyway, there’s people with powers knocking around, okay?) – and he’s already a hero and loved by the good people of earth. He’s also in a relationship with Lois Lane, who knows all about the Clark Kent/Superman issue. So that’s most of the interesting Superman stuff taken care of before its even begun.
