The cover of Batman/Superman: Worlds’ Finest #19 features an unexpected incarnation of Superman. It showcases the version of Superman that would have appeared in the abandoned Tim Burton film, Superman Lives, with Nicolas Cage as the star.
Artist Dan Mora brings this surprising version of Superman to life on the cover of the comic. The revelation of this cover was first made on Rolling Stone Magazine’s website, so beware of spoilers if you want to go into the movie or comic without any prior knowledge.
This version of Superman, played by Nicolas Cage, makes an appearance in the new Flash film. With the movie’s lackluster performance at the box office, DC Comics and Warner Bros. are using every opportunity to draw attention to it. Revealing this Superman cover in Rolling Stone Magazine is just one tactic they’ve employed.
Towards the end of the film, Barry Allen/The Flash uses the Speed Force to travel back in time and glimpse different DC multiverses. In one universe, we see Nicolas Cage’s Superman battling a giant spider. This sequence pays homage to a story filmmaker Kevin Smith has shared for years about his experience writing a Superman screenplay with unusual demands from producer Jon Peters.
Kevin Smith expressed his excitement about the movie referencing his past work, saying, “I finally made it.” He has been referencing movies throughout his career and now feels gratified that his contributions are being acknowledged in return.
Other covers in the Batman/Superman: World’s Finest series will feature Jerry Seinfeld, Paul McCartney, and Jack White. Who knows what other surprises await in future Flash cameos?
