Superman's Boss Perry White Takes The Spotlight in His Own DC Special
Perry White, Superman’s boss, steps into the spotlight this summer in a special one-shot reprinting some of his greatest stories. Perry is an important character in the Superman mythos but has never been the subject of his own special—until now.

Various members of Superman’s supporting cast, including Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen, have starred in their own specials and series, but Perry has never had his own, despite his important place in the Superman titles. All of that changes this June.
