Description

Classic Superman artist Wayne Boring provides us with an excellent and rare daily strip at the end of Superman�s 27-year newspaper run.

The excellence is obvious; Superman uses three different super powers in each of the three panels.

Rare because, well, pretty much the same reason: Many, many strips from this period only feature Clark, Lois or other characters in �civilian� garb, with soap opera style plots and stories. In other words, there are many strips where Superman is nowhere to be found.

In fact, in the 80s, Boring would often Remarque those �plain� originals with a Superman figure to make them more desirable in the collectors market.

But of course, no need to add an �extra� Superman here. He�s doing just fine in this good-looking example.

We managed to collect most of the Superman strips at IDW and LOAC, but couldn�t find any collectors with complete runs from the earliest silver age period. (Late 50s.) That era of strips includes the introduction of a Brainiac prototype (�Romado�) drawn by the great Curt Swan.

Nice duo tone board work. That Superman face is definitely Wayne Boring style.
