DC Comics is set to release a new five-issue Superman-centered event series called DC K.O., written by Scott Snyder, Joshua Williamson, and Javi Fernández. The storyline takes place across the DC Universe and features a 36-hero knockout tournament, with heroes competing to generate enough Omega Energy to challenge Darkseid.
The tournament transforms Earth into a battle arena, where heroes from various titles, including Justice League, Titans, Superman, Justice League Unlimited, and The Flash, will clash in an effort to become the new King Omega. Major tie-ins include several spinoff books, including Justice League: The Omega Act #1, which serves as a prologue.
The event promises to be a “knock-down, drag-out fight” between DC heroes, with Scott Snyder describing it as a “very personal story wrapped in nine layers of candy exploding in your face.” Joshua Williamson adds that the tournament will reveal unexpected heroes and challenges. The first issue is priced at $5.99 and features multiple variant covers.
The storyline begins on October 8th and runs until 2026, building anticipation for this new DC Comics event series.
