DC Adapts All-Star Superman into Full-Cast Audiobook

All-Star Superman, often hailed as one of the greatest Superman comics ever created, is set to captivate fans anew with its adaptation into a full-cast audiobook, thanks to a collaboration between DC and Penguin Random House. This iconic story, which secured a spot on IGN's Top 25 list, will be brought to life in a fresh auditory format.

The adaptation is being penned by Meghan Fitzmartin, based on the original work by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely. Quitely, the series' original illustrator, has contributed a new piece for the audiobook's cover, which you can see below:

Set in a standalone universe, All-Star Superman follows the Man of Steel as he faces his mortality after a near-fatal encounter with the sun. The narrative explores Superman's journey as he discloses his secret identity to Lois Lane, embarks on a series of heroic challenges reminiscent of the 12 Labors of Hercules, and ultimately confronts his nemesis, Lex Luthor, in a final epic battle.

The audiobook boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including:

  • Marc Thompson as Superman/Clark Kent & Zibarro
  • Kristen Sieh as Lois Lane
  • Christopher Smith as Lex Luthor
  • Sean Kenin Elias-Reyes as Bizarro & Atlas
  • Brandon McInnis as Jimmy Olsen
  • Matthew Amendt as Leo Quintum
  • Ray Porter as Jor-El
  • Jessica Almasy as Nasthalthia Luthor
  • Pete Bradbury as Perry White

Anne DePies, SVP and general manager of DC, expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, "As DC continues to connect with a wider audience of fans through innovative, accessible, and high-quality adaptations of our cornerstone Superman narratives, partnering with Penguin Random House Audio to adapt the classic DC comic book All-Star Superman will continue to expand our commitment to reach a broader fan base.

At the same time, we’re capturing the imaginations of longtime fans, podcast lovers, and audiobook aficionados by offering direct adaptations that faithfully bring their beloved stories to life."

PlayThe All-Star Superman audiobook is slated for release on June 24, 2025, perfectly timed one month ahead of the theatrical debut of James Gunn's Superman.
