    I think he appeared before in Action #9 he is this inter dimensional creature that has been wrecking havoc in other dimensions. I dont think they're related but I am excited to read should they have even some connections.

    I think this is the Nu52 re-telling/re-imagining of the DoS storyline. SuperDoom is NuDoomsday.

    Action still takes place in the past, right?

    @80sBaby: i think dos is still canon. it says the second death of superman, so superdoom maybe a new character.

    Albeit he looked like this in the end :

    He was depowered though, but him losing was still PIS. He would have whupped him with his Kryptonian fighting skills.

    Hope their encounter does not belong only to Metropolis or the Earth, anything else is unworthy to their powerlevel.

    Not exactly. From the previews it seems DoS happened once. So this isn't a retelling.

    That is possible, but as of those few pages, DoS stands.
