The task wasconfirmed by Hitch the stick to monthand thenannounced by DC Comics eighteen month later in April 2023 , to be published in July 2023 , and the first issue was . The second egress was court for September 2023 but was then cancelled and resolicited for December 2023 . And then cancelled again . DC Comics ' February 2025 solicitsincluded a 2d printing ofLast Days Of Lex Luthor#1 for February , but also the hope that the first printing of the 2d and third issues would be out in March and April 2025 , respectively . And that date , it seems , has gravel . Bryan Hitchtook to X back then to excuse what was going on .
" Since it ’s come up a few time , yes Superman - Luthor is ' delayed ' but it ’s been a retentive route of delays for all of us . Here ’s the story . When Waid and I first started this , he was still Boom White House and I was also reflect some other tenacious form jobs . issuing one got write but there was go to be a long pulse until Mark could get to write out two . Then there were other , schedule serial , monthlies Mark take to prioritize and , after pencilling topic one , I took on Venom which ran for 16 egress and Ultimate Invasion ( 150 page ) . "
And then there was a little thing calledRedcoatand spook Machine at Image Comics too … .
" So , I come back to Superman with proceeds three written earlier this year after UI finished in recent July . Had a nice summertime and dug in again this calendar month , just wrapping publication two . So issue one come out a few month ago , right ? I was sure enough surprised it was solicit , let alone published as , then , Kevin was perchance 4 pages into a 48 Sir Frederick Handley Page return 2 and I had n’t done more than about 20 pages of it myself and could n’t for month still . "
" I surmise , it come out because it had to fall into some fiscal quarter / year or time period but for our part on the drawing end , it just cause us front a bit lagging behind when it ’s really nobody ’s flaw . It ’s been a very delayed project for Mark , me and Kev for loads of rationality . I ’ll be done with the full series in early November or so , Kevin , quite a number after that . Nobody is rushing anything here ; it will be done when it ’s done and likely published in full early next year . We all sleep with this book and have eff wee-wee it . Mark and I had talked about it for class now so beget to do it all has been just brilliant . We ’ve been really gratify by the response to ( as far as we ’re concerned ) a very untimely button of military issue 1 so thank you all for that . "
" I really value it never looks honorable when account book are delay but the delay here look bad because consequence one came out too presently really , from our p.o.v . It ’s been sitting with me since other 2021 and I ’m glad I ’m draw to land up it the way we need to . Mark ’s playscript is one of those perfect Superman stories I think will be appreciated for decades to issue forth . Kevin is putting so much into the inks and I finally got to draw a proper Superman story . Hang in there with us . It is getting done . "
