Description

Acquired from McKone at Comic-Con International in San Diego in 2000. One of the reasons I love them so much is that the narration on those pages is about the business and ideals that go into publishing a daily newspaper.

I was also lucky enough to happen upon Jeph Loeb shortly after I’d purchased the pages and asked him to autograph them. Instead, surprised and excited to see the pages, he asked how I happened upon them and offered to buy them from me (for twice what I’d paid). I declined the offer, noting I never get a chance to buy original art, and Loeb obliged me with my autograph request.

I only bought two Superman pages from McKone (this one and Page 4 from the same issue), but those two were from the four-page opening sequence from the issue in question. I can’t remember if McKone had pages 2 and 3 and I passed on them for financial reasons, or if he only had pages 1 and 4 (again, maybe 2 and 3 went to the inker). I hope it’s the latter not the former, as I’d kick myself now if I learned I missed the opportunity to have the entire four-page sequence. I'd love to add Pages 2 and 3 to my collection (nudge, nudge).
