In this story, a new character, Ulysses, with an origin very similar to Superman's shows up in Metropolis. Good news, it doesn't seem like he has arrived to do evil. He might just be an awesome new partner for Superman in fighting the world's evils. Also in this volume, Superman manifests a brand new power (to go along with his already large list of powers).
