ICYMI: The Death of Superman Special #1 Celebrates 30 Years Since DC Killed Off The Man of Steel

 


This fall, DC Comics will be honoring three decades of one of the shocking events to happen in the history of comics - "The Death of Superman".

In a blog post seen at their official website, DC Comics has announced that they are honoring that classic DC storyline with a double-sized special that will be released this coming November.

To celebrate the special anniversary of this genre-defining moment, DC has reunited the original creative teams of Dan Jurgens and Brett Breeding; Roger Stern and Butch Guice; Louise Simonson and Jon Bogdanove; and Jerry Ordway and Tom Grummett for The Death of Superman 30th Anniversary Special #1. Available at comic shops on November 8, The Death of Superman 30th Anniversary Special #1 features four all-new stories that explore the lasting impact that Clark’s death had on his family and friends as well as nine pinups and variant covers by some of the top names in comics.

Even after 30 years, the Man of Steel's heroic sacrifice battling and losing his life to Doomsday is still well remembered by fans and comic readers to this day. It will be interesting to see how this special and the stories collected in it will commemorate the occasion.
