SAN DIEGO – Superman is coming back, and he may have a caped co-star.

“Man of Steel” director Zack Snyder announced Saturday at San Diego’s Comic-Con that he was making another Superman film, then dropped a hint it may be with Batman.

He declined to reveal many details, saying the script is just being written, but he invited an actor onstage to read a passage to hint at the story line.

“I am the man who beat you,” read Harry Lennox, before an image of the Superman logo, backed by the Batman symbol, flashed on the screen.
