Superman #1
This collection presents the iconic 'Death of Superman' storyline from the early 1990s, newly reprinted in a 2016 edition. It follows Superman's fatal battle with the monstrous Doomsday, the subsequent period of mourning, and the emergence of four new Supermen vying to fill the void. This volume gathers the core issues from the original saga, including the famous Superman #75.
In "Doomsday!", the unstoppable force of Doomsday escapes his containment and charges toward Metropolis, leaving destruction in his wake. With the help of Keith Robert Parks and Charlie, Superman races to stop the rampage before the city falls. Written by Louise Simonson and illustrated by Jon Bogdanove, with inks by Dennis Janke and colors by Glenn Whitmore, this pivotal issue features a striking cover by Dan Jurgens and Brett Breeding.
In a tense moment when Superman fails to stop a gang of Underworlders from stealing weapons, a sudden, violent punch shatters a steel wall—signaling the arrival of something far more dangerous. The story’s chilling title, *null*, hangs in the air as the first true threat to Superman’s invincibility looms.
In "null," Superman faces a twisted game as Mr. Mxyzptlk returns, twisting reality with lies that defy logic. Meanwhile, Doomsday relentlessly attacks a steel door, each blow chipping away at the barrier with terrifying precision.
In "Doomsday!", Superman races to stop the unstoppable force of Doomsday as he rampages toward Metropolis, leaving destruction in his wake. With the help of Keith Robert Parks and Charlie, Superman must confront not only the monstrous threat but also the chaos unleashed by the Underworlders and Warworlders, all while protecting the city and the people he's sworn to defend.
