Okay,Watch The Temptation of Kimono (2009) so you're the Man of Steel. That doesn't exempt you from the occasional day of suck.

That's the premise behind Superman and the Miserable, Rotten, No Fun, Really Bad Day, a book based -- of course -- on the beloved 1972 children's classic Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Really Bad Day.

The parody superhero book, to be released by Mad Magazinethis fall, follows on the success of a similar Madproduction: Goodnight Batcave. (Both Madand DC Comics are owned by Time Warner, which explains the synergy.)

This time, it's Krypton's favorite son in the crosshairs -- and given the overly grim Zack Snyder version of the character we saw in Man of Steeland Batman v Superman, giving Supes something to reallycomplain about seems entirely appropriate.

Here's a sneak peek of the book, exclusive to Mashable:

Looks like there's plenty here to delight both Alexanderfans and Superman nerds. (Yes, that is the bottle city of Kandor in place of the toy drum at the foot of the bed.)

Over the course of his day, Clark faces rampaging super villains, angry editors, boring chores, a cranky Justice League, and, worst of all, bad pizza.

Here, just in time for the Wonder Womanmovie, Supes is upset that he doesn't get a ride in Diana's invisible jet.

And just so you know, there's more ways than one to get a costume wrong -- even if it already has the underpants on the outside.
