Description

Well!

I've been having a great SDCC, with special thanks to the inimitable Mr Jeff Wedding!

I'm going to take the day off today, but I wanted to post a very special piece (to me, at least!).

When I started in the hobby, there were 3 books that immediately sprung to mind as nostalgia targets.

Watchmen, The Killing Joke, and Action Comics #583 with the epic conclusion to the story, 'Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" - who knew I was #1AlanMooreFan???

I'm absolutely thrilled to finally complete the trifecta.

Have a nice weekend!

P.S. This panel layout is wild!

Never forget your future. If so you'll only be left with your past and present. Love that second panel. Congrats on the pick up.

As the final pre-Crisis Curt Swan Action story and classic Alan Moore tale, this is definitely a treasure worthy of completing your trifecta with!

MODOK and Krang hanging out with Brainiac on his skull ship would be another great trifecta. We should start the triple property crossover!

Fantastic page from an unforgettable story. The villains are truly scary, and all these years later I can't forgive them for the deaths of my favorite redheads, Lana Lang and Jimmy Olsen.

I honestly think that you don't need this lame page from that boring story ! You should sell it (to me) :)
