Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey is a 1995 American comic book story arc published by DC Comics. The miniseries follows The Death of Superman.

Concept

Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey is a three-issue miniseries which explores the origin of the character Doomsday, and the rematch between him and Superman after their first battle in The Death of Superman.[1] The story includes appearances by Bertron, Waverider, Louis Lane, Cyborg Superman, Darkseid, Linear Men. The story arc was written and penciled by Dan Jurgens, inked by Brett Breeding, and colored by Gregory Wright.

Reception

Steve Faragher reviewed Superman/Doomsday – Hunter/Prey for Arcane magazine, rating it a 4 out of 10 overall.[2] Faragher comments that "Writer Jurgens and artist Breeding do their best to inject some angst into the well-chronicled cape-wearer's philosophy, but they're up against a wall of steel and their well-intentioned attempts fail to add anything new to the myth of Superman."[2]
