Convergence #0

Convergence #0 (June 2015) is all about Superman specifically the nu52 version after being infected with Brainiac's Doomsday virus. I didn't read that particular storyline so I only have a vague idea of what that was about.

One of the highlights of the issue was him seeing different versions of himself throughout the multiverse with most of them dying:
Pages 6 and 7 of Convergence #0 from DC Comics
The nu52 Superman escapes his prison and explores the planet a little. He finds several cities under domes before fighting the planet itself which takes on different versions of Brainiac. Finally, the living planet decides to create a new identity for himself as Telos.

I really have to wonder if this major event was inspired by Stephen King's The Dome.
