Superman: The Man of Steel #124 – 2002 brings readers to the edge of emotional and narrative tension as the devastating “Ending Battle” storyline nears its conclusion. With the lives of those closest to Clark Kent hanging in the balance, and the public perception of Superman beginning to shift, this issue delivers a tightly scripted, high-stakes chapter that tests the very fabric of Superman’s character.

Written by Mark Schultz with detailed pencils by Yvel Guichet and inks from Mark Propst, this instalment continues to push the Last Son of Krypton to his limits. Enemies have struck in coordinated waves, attempting not just to defeat Superman, but to dismantle everything that gives him strength—his identity, his relationships, and his moral centre.

In The Man of Steel #124, the city is on edge, the heroes are worn thin, and Superman is stretched between hope and hopelessness. Schultz uses these narrative elements to build a portrait of a hero refusing to surrender in the face of rising odds. This is a Superman story less about raw power and more about resolve, integrity, and the weight of legacy.

Yvel Guichet once again delivers moody, dynamic artwork that captures both the action sequences and the emotionally charged character moments with equal impact. Mark Propst’s inking adds texture and shadow to every panel, reinforcing the sense of threat that permeates this issue. The art team works in harmony with Schultz’s script, creating a cohesive and compelling visual tone throughout the issue.

As the arc builds toward its climax, every issue becomes more essential—not only for understanding the overarching conflict but for witnessing how deeply it affects the characters at the heart of the DC Universe.
