Team Superman is the name of DC Comics' informal team of heroes who all wear the "S" shield of Superman. This team was officially called "Team Superman" in Team Superman: Secret Files and Origins # 1, May 1998. This team assembles whenever Superman himself is in trouble, if a situation calls for more power than Superman has (like fighting Darkseid), or if Superman is gone and needs someone to fill in for him. The team has had different members over the years, but the members are always super-powered, and very close to Superman. There was a single comic Team Superman #1 published in July 1999 in which Superman himself was abducted by an alien "hero killer."
