Warning: SPOILERS for Justice League #19

If Superman fans ever wondered how much wiser, more powerful, or how bearded the future Man of Steel would one day become, then wonder no more. DC has revealed the evolved Superman of Tomorrow... and he is glorious.

It should go without saying that the canonical, "official" Superman living decades, centuries, even millennia into DC's future is always subject to change. And the better the story, the more imaginative the Man of Steel. What if Superman had to kill Batman in a future gone wrong? What if Superman was truly immortal? All worth seeing in the flesh, but the latest version promises something greater, something more... wondrous to behold.

Thanks to Justice League #19 breaking the wall between this dimension and the ones above, fans can see who Superman will become - in the future where the heroes finally won.

Superman Enters the Sixth Dimension

We won't dive into the entire story of the current Justice League comic series thus far, since the reveal of the true creator of DC's reality, the goddess Perpetua, is a lot to process. All casual fans need to know is that the Justice League needs more help than their dimension can offer - leaving them with Superman's classic nemesis, Mr. Mxyzptlk, a being of the imagination-fueled Fifth Dimension. He's willing to help, too, by granting Superman access to the Sixth Dimension above his own.

Even Mxy isn't sure just what can be found in that Sixth and, presumably, final dimension. As he briefly describes to the rest of the Justice League, the universe they know is part of the Third Dimension. The Fourth is time, and the Fifth is how own, created and shaped by imagination. But the Sixth? That's effectively the doorway out of DC's reality, and into the spaces inhabited only by the select forgers of reality itself (The Monitor, The Anti-Monitor, and Perpetua before her imprisonment).

The Future Superman Returns in Seconds

Since Mxyzptlk exists outside the confines of time, he reveals that this terrible crisis, and the League's request of his help was all foreseen by him long, long before today. And to prepare - he claims - he has messed with Superman in order to imbue him with enough Fifth Dimensional energy to actually survive a trip into the Sixth Dimension (where even Mxy doesn't dare travel). Seeing no other option, the League has no choice but to watch as Superman walks out of their own plane of existence, and into a higher one. Well, one two levels higher, actually.

Superman is only gone for a few seconds to their senses. But the hero who comes back through the door to meet his friends, having developed a solution through means and trials they can't yet comprehend, is the Superman of Tomorrow as he's never been imagined before...

Here's your last warning to read the issue for yourselves, before SPOILERS strike.

DC's Future Superman Finally Revealed

The Kryptonian who strolls out of the door has apparently spent the last decade analyzing each of a billion different outcomes, though only moments have passed for those not existing beyond time, in the Third Dimension (a notion that seems to weird out all of the heroes, except for the visibly bored Flash). But all fans are going to want to talk about is the now older, now more conscious, and hopefully more enlightened Superman explaining these developments.

The massive 'S' on his chest is fortunate, since it would be hard to recognize Superman without it. Fans have seen a future, bearded Superman before, but the white hair, white robes, and golden headpiece seem more befitting a demigod from another world than Clark Kent. Or, to be fair, a version of Superman hailing from a future in which he evolves to a higher dimension of knowledge and understanding.

Despite the differences or likelihood of deception, Martian Manhunter informs the rest of the Justice League that this really is their Superman, as best as he can tell. Whether or not this older, greyer Man of Steel seems like the real deal, Batman is a bit apprehensive when invited to make the same journey he has.

Leaving Mera and Starman behind to watch over the world as they follow their friend, the Justice League heroes enter through the same portal Supes used to ascend himself (now modified to allow their mortal bodies to make the trip). But what they find beyond the limits of their own dimension isn't what anyone - including the readers - are going to expect.

The Justice League of The Future Revealed, Too?

Instead of seeing completely impossible-to-comprehend visions of reality, the League is met with a familiar sight: their own Hall of Justice, although set against the backdrop of what looks to be an idyllic vision of the future. And to top it all off, they're met with their own future selves, similarly 'evolved' to a new form. John Stewart, the Gren Lantern now a gleaming, omni-Lantern as he was always capable of being. The Flash, possibly occupying more than one form surrounded by Speed Force electricity. Wonder Woman similarly aged and refined in dress. J'onn and Kendra hand in hand, with what may be a child in the other.

And Batman... in a black cloak (oddly still on-brand for the Dark Knight). As Superman immediately explains - without explaining to the reader at all - he hasn't just seen the future where the heroes of Earth manage to defeat the coming threats and win the day. He may actually have been living there. But what that means for his previous self, or these other doppelgangers are questions that will only be asked in the next issue. For now, fans can remain in awe... and hope this sight of the future is truly the one DC's Earth is destined to become.

Justice League #19 is available at your local comic book store, or directly from DC Comics.
