THE ALL-STAR CREATORS OF 2025'S HIT MINISERIES SUPERMAN: THE KRYPTONITE SPECTRUM (AND THE ONGOING HORROR ANTHOLOGY ICE CREAM MAN) ARE BACK AT DC COMICS TO LIFT YOUR SPIRITS! The Deadman enters the Next Level! In the millisecond following his murder, the soul of shifty circus aerialist Boston Brand was commandeered by the goddess Rama Kushna, who deputized the erstwhile performer's ghost with a sacred spectral assignment: the Custodian of All Souls! Now Brand floats—begrudgingly—through this bluegreen purgatory we call Earth, upholding the Laws of Spiritual Math and protecting humanity from evil—even if they can't see or hear him. Open up to this new era of DC's most lively deceased superhero—the Deadman—in a story about life, death, and everything in between...replete with paranormal activity, possessions, and a profusion of other poignant peculiarities.
