Bookroo's summary

Astronaut Hank Henshaw's life ends in a solar flare, but his consciousness survives, merging with machines. Blaming Superman for his fate, Hank harnesses technology's might to destroy the Man of Steel. Can Superman withstand this relentless, tech-fueled vendetta, or will Hank's wrath redefine the limits of human-machine fusion? Dive into a battle where humanity and technology collide, and the stakes are nothing less than the survival of a hero.

From the publisher

A solar flare suddenly erupts near astronaut HANK HENSHAW’S space shuttle, killing him. But that wasn’t the end for HENSHAW – he survived, and in the process, developed the ability to fuse his consciousness with machines. HANK blames SUPERMAN for his tragic fate, and is dead set on unleashing all the powers of technology in his bid to break the MAN OF STEEL.
