About this Episode

In this episode, Greg and Leon are joined by special guest Marvyn for the second episode in our special series discussing, in honour of it's 30th anniversary, "THE DEATH AND RETURN OF SUPERMAN". In this episode we discuss the comic book industry of the early 90s and the impact that seismic events, such as the comic book sales boom and the founding of image comics, had on the descision making behind the story and particularly, the arc that follows THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN and SUPERMAN: FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND, REIGN OF THE SUPERMEN!!.

REIGN OF THE SUPERMEN covers:

  • ACTION COMICS #687-688
  • ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN#500-502
  • SUPERMAN #78-79
  • SUPERMAN ANNUAL #5
  • SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL #22-23
  • SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL ANNUAL #2

We also talk a little about DCs infamous BLOODLINES CROSSOVER EVENT (Greg Suffered so that you don't have to!) In the context of it being an interesting bridge between Knightfall and The Death And Return Of Superman.

Foil covers, trading cards, and more variant covers than you can shake a stick at, ITS ALL HERE! So join us as we continue our voyage through "THE DEATH AND RETURN OF SUPERMAN"
around the 30th anniversary of the event that taught the world not to take our heroes for granted!
