When it came to the number one choice for the summer, there was one clear winner from our readers, and it just happened to match the Yahoo! Movies selection as well. The new Superman revamp "Man of Steel" was the champ with over 42,700 votes (27% of the total cast).

Coming into the year, it wasn't clear if there would be a lot of excitement for "Man of Steel." The early trailers were fairly abstract without much action, and 2007's "Superman Returns" did not perform up to expectations. But with the most recent trailer revealing a truly epic scope to the film, and with the weight of "The Dark Knight" mastermind Christopher Nolan attached as producer, it's clear that audiences are ready to believe that a man can fly again when "Man of Steel" swoops into theaters on June 14.

One aspect of the animated movie that's receiving a lot of interest is the musical score by composer Kevin Kliesch, which is available today on CD and digital download.

"Director James Tucker and I agreed that a purely orchestral approach to the score was the wrong direction," Kliesch said when asked about the score. "So I assembled a large sound palette that included a heavy dose of electronics overlaid on top of the orchestra. I wanted to give a nod to the traditional super hero themes by utilizing the brass section, but at the same time I wanted it to sound fresh and contemporary, so there's a generous amount of synthetic textures and driving percussion underneath it all. As for Brainiac, I wanted his music to have an otherworldly sound that hints not so slightly of madness and hubris combined."

As a character, Superman tends to be associated with bright colors, optimism and truth, justice and the American way, which Kliesch confirms helps to inform many of his choices.

"Superman has always been associated with a powerful and noble theme, which is usually represented by the brass section, so I didn't want to break tradition in that sense," he elaborates. "But I might lean less heavily on the 'super hero fanfare' aspect of the character, depending on who it was that I was composing for. I'll just have to figure that one out when the next movie comes along."

Purchase the "Superman: Unbound" Original Motion Picture Soundtrack on CD from the Superman Homepage Online Store.

BuzzFeed.com spoke with DC Comics writers Geoff Johns and Jeff Lemire to get some inside information on what we can expect from the upcoming "Trinity War" saga set to take place across three different Justice League titles throughout July and August. Here's a portion of the interview...

On top of the Justice Leagues being at war, there are two other players involved: Pandora and Phantom Stranger. How do they fit in here?

GJ: Well, it's called the Trinity War, and obviously it's a war among the three Justice Leagues in a way, but also there is something that happens with the "trinity" of Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman, but then you have the Trinity of Sin, which is Pandora, Phantom Stranger, and The Question - who is a bit of a mystery - but those characters play a role in this as well. The top line is this a war between the World's Greatest Heroes, the World's Most Dangerous Heroes, and the World's Freakiest Heroes, but the mystery within that is "what does Trinity War mean?" And once that's revealed, it changes the DC universe in a very big way.

JL: For anyone who's not familiar with a lot of this stuff, Pandora is a character who has been really present in all the New 52 books since the launch. She's sort of the center of the catalyst for this whole story; she's a really key figure.

Any chance of Wonder Woman and Superman making it through this story arc with their relationship intact?

GJ: I think the bigger question is will you see any of these characters make it through. The thing about Wonder Woman and Superman is when their relationship ends, it's going to end badly. There is no good way for this one to end. And then there's other concerns. When those two start acting out together, people get nervous. Not because they don't think they're heroes, but because they have such incredible power, and who could stop those two?
