SHOWCASE PRESENTS: SUPERMAN VOL. 1

A while back I was complaining about rip-offs, but now here's a rip-off I've been hoping to see for a long time. DC has finally decided to copy Marvel's Essential line. They are calling it Showcase Presents. Here's the description from DC's website-

SHOWCASE PRESENTS: SUPERMAN VOL. 1

Written by Jerry Siegel, Bill Finger and others; Art by Curt Swan, Dick Sprang and others; Cover by Swan and George Klein


Kicking off an exciting line of black-and-white reading library titles! This volume collects SUPERMAN #122-133 and ACTION COMICS #241-257, featuring the birth of the Silver Age Superman mythos, including the first appearances of Supergirl, Brainiac, the Fortess of Solitude and more!

DC Universe | 560pg. | B&W | Softcover | $9.99 US | ISBN 1401207588

On Sale September 28, 2005


Now I love the DC Archives editions, but lets face it, they are too damn expensive. $9.95 is a much more freindly price. Now DC just needs to rip-off the $1 B&W digests I've been seeing in Wall-mart and the dollar stores and everything will be right with the world.

Future volumes of Showcase presents include:
Justice League of America Vol. 1
Green Lantern Vol. 1
Jonah Hex Vo. 1
Metamorpho Vol. 1
