All-Star Superman is frequently hailed as one of the greatest Superman stories ever told, earning its spot on numerous “best of” lists—including IGN’s Top 25 Superman Comics. Now, fans will have the opportunity to experience this iconic tale in a fresh and immersive format: a full-cast audiobook. DC and Penguin Random House are collaborating to bring this celebrated story to life through voice acting, sound design, and narrative production, offering both longtime fans and newcomers an engaging way to enjoy the legendary arc.
Meghan Fitzmartin is handling the adaptation of the audiobook, based on the original comic written by Grant Morrison with art by Frank Quitely. Quitely also contributed an exclusive new illustration for the audiobook's cover, giving fans a fresh visual to accompany the retelling:
All-Star Superman presents a self-contained storyline set in a unique universe where Superman faces his own mortality after absorbing a fatal dose of solar radiation during a mission too close to the sun. The narrative follows Kal-El as he navigates his final days, revealing his secret identity to Lois Lane and embarking on a heroic journey reminiscent of the Twelve Labors of Hercules—culminating in a final confrontation with his greatest foe, Lex Luthor.
In a statement, Anne DePies, SVP and General Manager of DC, emphasized the importance of expanding Superman’s legacy through innovative storytelling formats: “As DC continues to connect with a wider audience through accessible, high-quality adaptations of our cornerstone Superman narratives, partnering with Penguin Random House Audio to adapt the classic DC comic book *All-Star Superman* represents a natural evolution of our commitment to reach broader audiences. This audiobook serves as an ideal entry point for those new to the Superman mythos while enriching the experience for long-time fans, podcast enthusiasts, and audiobook lovers alike.”

It’s worth noting that *All-Star Superman* has already been adapted once before—as a critically acclaimed animated film in 2011. That version remains a fan favorite, known for its emotional depth and faithful interpretation of the source material. With this new audiobook edition, the story gains yet another platform to inspire and entertain across generations of fans.
