With Superman set to reveal his identity to the world in next Wednesday’s Superman #18, I decided it would be fun to take a look back at 2015’s “Truth” story (part of the post-Convergence “DC You” publishing campaign) wherein Superman’s identity was revealed (while he was also at half-power no less) by someone close to Clark.
Viewer’s Choice: I’m leaving this open to whichever movie or TV episode YOU, dear reader, would like to watch that features the revelation of Clark’s truth.
It doesn’t have to be DCU-based content, but please be sure to highlight what you’ve watched, as it may be something new to someone else, and therefore lead to more Superman enjoyment for them.
Discuss:
Should Clark’s true identity be known to the world or is it better for him to maintain a life separate from Superman?
Between “Before Truth” and “Truth” which was your favorite story? Were you angered by who revealed Clark’s secret or were you sympathetic to their reasoning?
Are you planning to read Superman #18 (cover below and again, due for release on 12/11) to see how the upcoming story “The Truth” begins?
If it isn’t streaming somewhere or on TV, it’s worth a rental. Great performances by the whole cast, along with great writing by Aaron Sorkin (The West Wing) and direction by Rob Reiner (This is Spinal Tap).
I WANT THE TRUTH @Vroom! @Vroom: YOU CAN’T HANDLE THE TRUTH! Find I’ll give you the truth, while you’re bugging Kelex I’ve been reading one of the perhaps a shocking story of Superman revealing his secret, his secret identity is so shocking that I don’t think even you @Reaganfan78 CAN HANDLE IT!!!
Who is he then? @Vroom: My mouth is seal, you’re just going to have to read it. Guess I’m going to have to.
I decided to link each arc’s respective series instead of the specific issues this week. When assorted issues from assorted titles are the focus of a given week, I’ll link each issue.
For this week however, I felt it better to link each series, due to consecutive issues from each being this week’s selection.
A Few Good Men is way, way at the top of my list of favorite movies. It’s one of those that I own but still stop to watch every time I see that’s it on tv.

Ah so we come to a story I actually did read before in one of my many attempts to get into the N52 Superman. I give it another go but at the time I remember that this story also failed to pull me into the book.
