Frank Miller tänker ta till pennan igen och denna gång skriva en berättelse om Superman. Detta avslöjades för ett par veckor sedan och beskrivs som Supermans motsvarighet till Batman: Year One. John Romita Jr. kommer teckna serien och enligt honom handlar detta inte om någon ursprungshistoria.
"I've seen the reactions online about, 'Oh, my God, here we go, another Superman origin,' and it's not really the origin retelling. It's after the origin, it's after he lands, what happens between the time he lands and the time he realizes what he is. And this slight slant on the development of Superman is that he's really unconscious that he's an alien 'til his parents tell him that he's an alien. In the meantime, he just thinks he's special. And he doesn't appear in costume until the very end. It's similar to the 'Daredevil: Man Without Fear' back in the '90s, and it's the period of time up until he puts the costume on for the first time."
Enligt Romita Jr. har Miller velat skriva den här berättelsen i ungefär 30 år.
"And Frank has this twisted imagination about what should happen, and we talked about it, and [Frank's] eyes glow. He said he's wanted to do this as long as he can remember, since, when did 'Batman: Year One' come out? Was that 30 years ago? He said he always wanted to complete the cycle and do a 'Superman: Year One.' Well, he finally got the chance to do it, and of course, it's a hundred pages and there are a million people in it."
