Metropolis has been through the proverbial wringer, recently being restored to its natural lustre as the city of tomorrow
. But its protector, Superman, is missing and its populace - including his wife, Lois Lane - have no clue where he is. Somehow, the Man of Steel finds himself on his native world of Krypton, with new powers emerging. What is Kal-El accused of, and how can he escape alive and find his way back to Earth?...

Superman is back on Krypton. He has a wife and a menial job working for the government. How can this be? Is this a parallel universe version of our Man of Steel, or a dream? These questions, and many others are tackled in this fantastically plotted tale.

Titan certainly pushed the boat out when it came to the presentation of Godfall. Beautiful glossy pages make this a highly sought after collection. If you've already read this story when it was originally released in comic book form, then you will no doubt be eager to own this much classier version.

The artwork is fantastic and fans will be glad to hear that there is also a cover gallery at the back of this collection - which includes the original pencil drawings and the finished inked and coloured results. There are also some rough sketches which help to add extra value to this beautiful collection. It doesn't get much better than this.
