Comment(s):

This issue follows issue 37 and was a tie in to Zero Month, with every on going series in the DCU having an issue "0" to help retell the character's origins and/or shift into new stories to help new readers begin collecting. The numbering of issues reverted to normal sequence in the following month. The cover had a shattered stopwatch emblem of Zero Hour and "The beginning of tomorrow" phrase for Zero Month, with silver detail. The title and issue number were also in silver.

Solicitation:

Someone's cutting Clark Kent's face out of childhood photos...and trying to kill him, too! Who is this new menace?
