About the series

In the late '80s and early '90s, German publisher Norbert Hethke Verlag produced this six-issue series reprinting American Superman stories, bringing the Man of Steel's adventures to a new audience overseas. The issues collected work from key DC talents of the era—including Jerry Ordway, Dan Jurgens, and Roger Stern on writing, with art by Jurgens, Ordway, and a young Mike Mignola. A concise snapshot of the post-Crisis Superman era, it's a notable artifact of how European readers encountered the iconic hero before DC's own international distribution took over.
