Superman’s epic battle with Doomsday is one that will forever be remembered. On Wednesday, November 18, 1992, Superman’s death made headlines all across the country. Mainstream media coverage included segments on NPR, Headline News, Entertainment Tonight, E! News, and even a Saturday Night Live parody. Print coverage included articles in Newsweek, People, and Newsday. The media coverage resulted in a buying frenzy as fans (and even non-fans) lined up outside of stores just to get a copy of the death issue, Superman #75.
Presented is a rarely offered complete set of the “Death of Superman” series. This set of Doomsday covers is pristine with each book graded CGC 9.8: Action Comics (1), Adventures of Superman (1), Man of Steel (2), Superman (2). All are rare newsstand editions, far more coveted and valuable than direct issues. Justice League #69 (CGC 9.6) has been included as a bonus.
A pop culture phenomenon, and the most significant and substantial comic book saga of the 20th century. Encapsulated by CGC (9.8, Newsstand)
