Stevenrams Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) How about an annual for today: I always like these back covers on the early annuals. It's very interesting to note that the comic covers on the back of the annuals were always missing the 10-cent price. Did DC intentionally leave it off so as not to let its collector base know that comics were "way cheaper" back in the day?

frozentundraguy Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Superman was snoozing in Action #268, now it Luthor's turn. I don't have issue #319, which has the conclusion of this story, but I would venture to guess his death is not final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to add #149 to my want list along with #146. I had often wondered why Superman was "forgotten" in issue #150. He dies in issue #149 and is forgotten after one month?? Yikes ..
