Description
Being able to pair this with the cover to Vengeance of Bane is an absolute dream.

Doomsday - the character who killed Superman - makes his debut here. This book launched the "Death of Superman" story arc. To say it was a sales hit for DC is a major understatement.

Image area of 10" x 15".

Absolutely love this piece, a great find to a very historic time in Superman's life.   One of the early books I read growing up and got to live it a little when I worked on the movie.  Huge congrats!

Well there it is. You dropped the mic with Bane then picked it up and threw it at the audience. Congratulations on this piece. Truly remarkable.

FRAKA-THOOM! That's the sound of Doomsday punching a hole through my nostalgia meter. Historically awesome! This series brought me back to the DC spinner racks with a vengeance. I loved the whole arc, and what came next with the rebirth. Very cool find. Huge congrats!
