Batman and Superman (and Wonder Woman) have a long history together.

Whether you come away from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice thrilled or bored, there are always more (and often better) stories about DC’s icons up for grabs. Here are six excellent comic stories featuring some combination of Batman, Wonder Woman and Superman that are worth seeking out.

1. American Alien by Max Landis.

Delving into Clark Kent’s pre-Superman years, American Alien is one of the finest Superman stories in years – perhaps decades. The series perfectly captures the essence of Clark as he tries to figure out his place in the world.
