ABSOLUTE SUPERMAN #13 CVR B BENGAL CARD STOCK VARCharge into the heart of heroism with ABSOLUTE SUPERMAN #13 CVR B BENGAL CARD STOCK VAR, a visceral reinvention from writer Jason Aaron and artist Rafa Sandoval, published by DC Comics! Released on November 5, 2025, this issue ignites "The Battle of Kansas, Part Two," transforming Smallville into a brutal warzone as Lazarus Corp's tanks and Peacemakers descend, pitting a tormented, power-drained Superman—scarred by Brainiac's tortures and Ra’s al Ghul's machinations—against overwhelming odds to shield his surrogate family and the Free State of Kansas. Aaron's unflinching dive into wrath, isolation, and rediscovery, amplified by Sandoval's raw, explosive panels, crafts a fever-pitch clash of willpower and corporate tyranny, solidifying this as the Absolute Universe's defining Superman epic.Cover DetailsThis premium card stock Cover B by Bengal pulses with brooding intensity: a shadowed Superman looms colossal over Smallville's embattled skyline, his scarred emblem flickering amid encroaching tanks and stormy chaos, evoking a noir-infused siege. Bengal's masterful shading and atmospheric dread—known from his Batman and Nightwing triumphs—elevates it to a tactile, display-ready masterpiece, a collector's grail for its luxurious stock and haunting, iconic silhouette that captures the series' grounded grit.Key AppearancesFocusing on Superman (Kal-El) unleashing controlled fury, with Lois Lane emerging as a fierce journalist-warrior, Lana Lang and Jimmy Olsen bolstering the resistance, and flashbacks to Brainiac and Ra’s al Ghul's cruelties. Deepens the Absolute Universe's blue-collar lore, linking to DC's corporate dystopias in Batman crossovers and hinting at Darkseid's shadows—poised for DCU HBO adaptations exploring rural heroism.Current Fair Market Value (FMV)Raw copies sell for $15-$20 on eBay post-release, spurred by Bengal's acclaimed variant allure and the issue's climactic battle hype. CGC 9.8 slabs hit $70-$90, boosted by card stock scarcity, low distribution, and early slabbed demand for this trauma-laden key.Value ProjectionsRaw prices may rocket to $35-$50 in 12-18 months, with CGC 9.8 soaring to $150-$220, propelled by Comic-Con teases of Absolute escalations and buzz around a gritty Superman streaming series. As the comic market expands 6.09% to $26.75 billion by 2032, DCU film crossovers could quadruple values for this Smallville-defining siege.Why Invest Now?This issue fuses Aaron's profound character arcs with Bengal's atmospheric artistry, birthing a must-own tale of defiant hope amid despair.
