The action, which included multiple flashbacks to earlier Supreme stories, pastiches of (and references to) comic-book staples, was tied together in #52. Although the 'Story of the Year' arc was intended to finish with a Silver Age-evoking 80-Page Giant special issue, it was split into two parts: 52a and 52b. Moore's Supreme built on and ignored the previous issues, re-creating the character from his origins.

Drawing on Silver Age Superman and innovations by Silver Age comic artists such as Julius Schwartz, Curt Swan, and Murphy Anderson, Moore wrote the 'last' Silver Age Superman story ( Superman: Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?) for Schwartz with Swan and Anderson and referenced Anderson in his 1963.

Given free rein over Supreme and the wider Maximum (later Awesome) universe, Moore created a complex storyline to reinvent the Supreme universe. Moore said in later interviews that his re-imagining of Supreme's background and origin was an apology for the darkness of his previous works at other publishers he had a reputation for the cynical deconstructing of superheroes in Batman: The Killing Joke, Swamp Thing, and Watchmen. ClichГ©s of the superhero genre were frequently used. Moore agreed on the condition that he could reinvent the character since he felt that the comic was 'not very good.' Beginning with issue #41 of Supreme, Moore began retooling the character, with each issue containing commentary on storytelling, comics history in general and Superman in particular. Rob Liefeld asked Alan Moore to write for Supreme. At the end of Supreme #40, Probe remained on the alternate Earth and Supreme returned to Earth.Д¬over art for Supreme #41 (after Superman #1), the start of Alan Moore's run art by Jerry Ordway After several events involving Enigma and Probe (Supreme's daughter from the future, also known as Lady Supreme), the original Supreme worked with Probe, Enigma, and the alternate Supreme to defeat the evil Norse god Loki (who had shifted realities). Original Supreme switched bodies with the alternate Supreme, restoring his powers. Although Supreme apparently died during an assault on humanity by Lord Chapel, he was stranded on an alternate Earth for several years until the alternate Supreme (stored by Enigma) returned and was defeated by the original Supreme. Supreme was victorious, so the other Supreme was left alone this figured in the events of The Legend of Supreme. When Supreme fought Thor for Mjolnir, a character named Enigma acquired another Supreme from an alternate timeline to store if Supreme was defeated. Although Supreme was briefly the field team leader of Heavy Mettle, he left the position after defeating the villain Khrome. He returned to Earth in 1992 to find a changed society, which included genetically-enhanced superpowered humans on teams such as Youngblood and Heavy Mettle. Supreme spent decades in space, fighting a number of threats on the side of an alien race known as the Kalyptans (the race of Gary Carlson and Erik Larsen's Vanguard). After the war, Supreme believed that he had done his part as a good Samaritan and left Earth in reality, Father Beam's accidental death at his hands drove him away.

Little was revealed about Supreme's work in World War II, except that he joined the Allies. Crane took the name 'Supreme' and, hearing about the war in Europe, decided to do his part. He found his way to a church, where he received sanctuary from Father Beam and discovered some of his new abilities. In prison, the government offered him a chance to participate in a human-improvement experiment in the hope that (unlike the six previous guinea pigs) he would survive.ДЄlthough Crane died like the others, unlike them he returned to life in a world which was strange and new to him. Crane was shot by two police officers but survived and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Winslow learns that in 1937, Ethan Crane shot and killed two men in retaliation for the rape of a 15-year-old girl. In the miniseries, reporter Maxine Winslow investigates Supreme's origin story. The character received a comprehensive treatment in The Legend of Supreme, a three-issue miniseries by Keith Giffen and Robert Loren Fleming.

Although the most powerful being in the Liefeld universe, he had his share of defeats: he was killed in the cross-title Deathmate Black series (published by Image and Valiant Comics), lost his powers in Extreme Prejudice, and was killed by Crypt in Extreme Sacrifice. At other times, such as when he defeated the Norse god Thor and took his mystical hammer MjГ¶lnir, Supreme considered himself a god. His history varied at one point, he was an angel of vengeance who quoted the Bible to justify his actions. Supreme was introduced in issue #3 of Rob Liefeld's Youngblood limited series as a flip book story before he was spun off into his own series.
