A Marvel writer is coming to DC for an all-new Superman story in the publisher’s Action Comics title, which will reportedly feature a “darker and scarier” version of longtime villain Bizarro.As reported by Popverse, Thor and Star Wars comics writer Jason Aaron is taking on the Man of Steel in his upcoming run on DC’s Action Comics with a story pitting Clark Kent’s Superman against some of his most iconic villains. While he has a lot in mind for the story, Aaron spoke at the Thought Bubble comic book festival in England to discuss his plans for a darker, more serious take on Bizarro, the infamous “reverse Superman” whom Clark fought for decades, which he believes goes underestimated by many comic readers. “I want to tell the story that shows what I love about these characters, but hopefully does something you haven’t seen before,” Aaron said. “Going back and reading those ’50s Bizarro stories, it makes you feel bad for Bizarro. It’s all, ‘look how stupid Bizarro is.'”Bizarro first appeared in a 1958 issue of Superboy before becoming a longtime opponent of Superman, when he took on the mantle of a twisted version of Superman who lacked the sense of responsibility and justice that Clark Kent embodies, making him a villain. Essentially a failed clone of Superman, Bizarro only speaks the opposite of what he actually means and is uninhibited by Superman’s main weakness, Kryptonite, which strengthens and heals him.DC Pushes Back New Superman Series’ Second Issue – Again
