Superman v1 Issue #1

One cbz file | 21 Mb | 64 pages

It's the first issue of Superman! Superman originally appeared in Action Comics #1 from 1938, but once Superman became popular DC Comics decided that it was time to give Supes his own book. Action Comics was similar to Detective Comics in that both titles used to only give you 8 to 12 pages of your favorite superhero (Superman or Batman) and devote the rest of the issue to about 8 other character stories. So when Superman #1 was released in 1939 you can imagine the excitement for this series that contained 64 pages entirely devoted to the Man of Steel. The only thing that was bad about the Superman series was that readers could only buy issues on a quarterly basis. Action Comics was published monthly. These are crystal clear scans from the first issue. We'll get back to issue #168 of Superman next week. I thought it would be nice to take a look back at how the series began. Enjoy! Bauer out.
