DC has confirmed that its Elseworlds resurgence will continue this summer with three new books just announced.

After first hinting that a new DC Elseworlds series, Supergirl: Survive, would launch during DC’s Summer of Supergirl celebration, DC now unveils the full scope of its next wave of alternate–universe storytelling with Supergirl: Survive, Superman: Father of Tomorrow, and Dark Knights of Steel II.

Here’s the official burbs and cover art for all three releases:

SUPERGIRL: SURVIVE
A Krypton That Burns. A Universe That Doesn’t Want Them. A Girl Who Refuses to Die.

Supergirl: Survive #1 main cover by Rod Reis

Kara Zor-El lives a life of small problems—school dances, family squabbles, and the impossible task of holding her floppy baby cousin Kal—but Krypton has big ones. As General Zod tightens his grip and the planet begins to burn, Kara and Kal are launched into the stars together, trapped in a prototype rocket and fighting to survive a universe that doesn’t care if they live or die.

Supergirl: Survive, a new DC Elseworlds comic book series written by Ethan S. Parker and Griffin Sheridan with art and covers by Rod Reis, launches on June 3. Parker and Sheridan (Eisner Award-nominees for Kill Your Darlings) join visionary artist Reis (New Mutants) for a harrowing Elseworlds tale of two refugees bound by blood, trauma, and hope.

SUPERMAN: FATHER OF TOMORROW
What If the Man of Tomorrow… Was Jor-El?

Superman: Father of Tomorrow #1 main cover by Danny Earls

When the planet Krypton explodes, a lone rocket escapes the destruction—not carrying Kal-El, but his father. Jor-El crash-lands in Kansas, where a kindly couple takes him in. As he adjusts to life on Earth, Jor-El discovers he can help his new home not only with his powers, but with his brilliant mind. This is the story of a Man of Steel and Science—and the world he saves.

Superman: Father of Tomorrow, a new DC Elseworlds comic book series written by Kenny Porter with art and covers by Danny Earls, launches just ahead of Supergirl: Survive, on May 27.

DARK KNIGHTS OF STEEL II
The medieval DC Universe returns to fire and fury

Dark Knights of Steel II #1 main cover by Yasmine Putri

DC will also return to one of its most beloved alternate–universe sagas with Dark Knights of Steel II, launching July 15 from writer Tom Taylor and artist Otto Schmidt, with covers by Yasmine Putri. More details will be revealed soon.

Superman: Father of Tomorrow and Supergirl: Survive join the DC Elseworlds line with their May and June debuts, followed in July by DC’s Dark Knights of Steel II. Fans can look forward to bold new visions of iconic characters, sweeping alternate histories, and the continued expansion of DC’s signature imprint for Super Hero stories set outside the main DC Universe.
