Action Comics #1101 Preview

 

Years ago, young Clark Kent survived the paradox Epoch created that nearly destroy his future. Then, despite Martian Manhunter and Mary Marvel's better judgment, Booster Gold launched Superboy on a course that could destroy it all over again. And when they achieved their fondest dream, and rescued Clark, even he shrugged off concerns about unleashing another paradox on his world. 

Now, Clark, his younger self, Booster Gold, Mary Marvel, and Martian Manhunter return to a dangerous present. An old villain has returned to menace his world again. How will General Zod seek to destroy everything Clark loves? And how might Clark's decision to bring his younger self to the present change his future?
