JoeJ Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Hi everyone! I work at a comic book store in Illinois, and I regularly price and label all of our comics. The owner recently brought me these, and I’ve tired every resource trying to find them. They’re really interesting looking, with the Marvel and DC superheroes on once cover. The title, translated, is “Superman Biography” and it appears to be published by “Long River Comics.” If any of you guys have info on what the book is, when it was published, or any data regarding value, anything would be much appreciated. Thanks! Joey rakehell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 The splash page is redrawn from Superboy and the Legion #245; the character on the cover with the funny hat and white beard is Mordru. The Superman figure is swiped from Action Comics #485, not the more famous Superman #233. Beyond that, I've got nothing. (Action cover borrowed from GCD, my copy's in storage.) steveinthecity, rakehell, ADAMANTIUM and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of collectors seem to like the foreign variants. Surprised they haven't weighed in. Those things creep me out. rakehell and BigLeagueCHEW 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aardvark88 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Possibly bootlegged from Hong Kong, as comic designed/bound to read USA style left to right rather than Chinese style right to left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
