DC Reveals 'Superman' November 2011 Covers

This week has been full of big reveals, so here's another to add to the pile. Earlier today DC gave fans their first look at the upcoming revamped Superman covers for the November books. The covers were posted without their solicits, so for now we can only speculate on what they will be about.

Posted in order from top to bottom below as the covers to Action Comics #3, Superman #3 and the stunning cover to Supergirl #3. The cover to Grant Morrison's relaunch of Action Comics shows Superman at the center of the controversy. This isn't the first time we've seen people riot against Superman however, and it makes sense that they would. I mean, would you be 100% comfortable with a super powered alien who is far stronger than any human? Wouldn't you consider him to be a threat and a liability to your society? Then again, why are these people surrounding Superman with baseball bats if he is so much stronger than they are and he is such a threat to their society? Morrison plans to re-tell the origin story of Superman in Action Comics, and based on that third cover due out this November, it doesn't seem like Superman will be spending all that much time in Smallville. Interesting.

In Superman #3 our hero will be up against a super powered, all new villain. But the most impressive of these covers is probably Supergirl #3. While the image doesn't really reveal much of what is set to take place in the issue itself, it's still a gorgeous portrayal Kara in her brand new costume. What do you think of these covers? Are you excited about the DC's November Superman books?

Xenophobia: one way to sympathize for Superman. How come DC is not showing Superboy's cover?

No Superboy?

Sorry still confused but can someone please explain to me the blank red shield plastered on Supergirl's crotch? 
 
Is Supergirl wearing flesh toned tights, that some can accidentally mistake for her skin?  Or is that blank red shield actually plastered on her skin?

I think Supergirl's disconnected underwear makes no sense at all... Bring back the mini-skirt please.

All of these look really great

That's a pretty nice butt shot of Superman.

Oh my god Supergirl's costume......what did they do to her?

The only one I like is Action Comics'.

I like the first cover but I still do not like Supergirl's new outfit

Where's Conner?

I love Kara's new costume

In the Action Comics one, there is a woman/man in the central foreground with a pink shirt and what looks like a hand symbol on the chest.  Does that not seem strangely akin to the Black Lantern symbol?  Seriously look at it.  I know its not exact but..wow! As for the other covers they look GREAT! Especially Kara :)

I don't like the artists.

Seriously, why is anyone even bothering with this relaunch?  Dc's done nothing but show us garbage.  Supergirl's costume is hideous!  And what happened to the DC/Marvel paradigm where the people of DC's earth love their heroes and Marvel's mistrusts them?!  I've said it before and I'll say it again, this 90's Iron Age comics bullcrap has no business in a modern comic book.  This relaunch pretty much tops the list of "The Worst Ideas in Comic Book History"; even beating out "One More Day".

"God Hates Kryptonians"
"Thank God for Kryptonite"
"Lex Wins, God Laughs"

Not too big a fan of the crotch-shield on Supergirl. And could that green cloud be the first introduction of Kryptonite to the relaunch?

That's a pretty nice butt shot of Superman.

i wonder if the government will build sentinels to take down those pesky aliens?

all the faces on the Action Comics cover look really weird all misshapen and Clark's face doesn't look right at all.

What happened to the Superboy series? I didn't see the cover under the Young Justice solits OR the Superman solits. :(

You can rail against what we see in the Action Comics cover all you want, but I like it. Some writers forget that "The Last Son of Krypton" isn't just a namesake for Superman, it's part of who he is. As much as he's adored by the public, he knows he'll never truly be a part of our world  and that image sums it up perfectly . Also, the first arc of Action Comics will be focusing on Superman in his beginnings as a crime fighter. If you were to see a man flying through the air and picking up cars and you heard that he wasn't even from your planet, would you trust him right off the bat?

Hope they find a good reason he would want to protect humans since everyone knows on the planet humans are the worst thing on it. lol

I actually wasn't interested in reading Superman's origin again but I'm excited for it now seeing that cover.  How can those people be mad at supes. He looks like the nicest guy in that picture! Which is exactly what Superman should look like.

@Everyman011: WHAAAATT?! When did this happen?

"Tim Drake, Batman’s former sidekick, is back in action when an international organization seeks to capture, kill or co-opt super-powered teenagers.

As Red Robin, he’s going to have to team up with the mysterious and belligerent powerhouse thief known as Wonder Girl and the hyperactive speedster calling himself Kid Flash to stand any chance at all against a living, breathing weapon with roots in another world!

 
 Then here is what it says for second issue...
 
A strange creature haunts the streets of Los Angeles… and because of this creature’s age, both Red Robin and N.O.W.H.E.R.E. are racing to find her – but neither side is prepared for the horror known as Bugg!

Meanwhile, Superboy is on a collision course with the team, and Kid Flash plots his escape from N.O.W.H.E.R.E. with the most unexpected of allies!

@ltbrd: When has anyone ever said superman can't fly? Because he can. I don't know where you're getting your information.

Seems cool.

According to DC's website yes he will. I'm just guessing it will be set at a different time than Teen Titans since from what I remember, he will be a villain in that series at first.

God dammit DC! You're supposed to be the optimistic publisher. Why can't my Comic Shop can't get more Images? 
I like Supergirl's cover however, she needs pants though.

I am not at all impressed with any of the artwork for these titles, and, oh dear God, what have the done to Supergirl's costume ?  Was cocaine involved in the planning for this ?  It looks like a giant red piece of fabric is just stuck to her.  Ugh, what a horrible design.
