DC Comics took a bold step and renumbered the longest-running monthly comic, <i>Action Comics</i>, to #1 for the first time since 1938 as part of the DC Comics—The New 52 event.<p>With this renumbering comes a new creative team featuring comics legend Grant Morrison and fan-favorite artist Rag Morales. While Morrison is no stranger to writing the Superman character, having won three Eisner Award's for his work on <i>All-Star Superman</i>, <i>Action Comics</i> will be something new for both old and new readers and present humanity's first encounters with Superman, before he became one of the World's Greatest Super Heroes. Set a few years in the past, it's a bold new take on a classic hero.</p><i> Superman: Action Comics Vol. 1: Superman and the Men of Steel</i> includes issues 1-8 of the monthly series
