Superman at 75 Published: Monday, June 17, 2013 By Kurt Anthony Krug
It’s hard to believe Superman has been fighting for truth, justice, and the American way for 75 years.
(excerpt)
To mark this milestone, DC has unveiled a commemorative
Superman 75th Anniversary logo. An animated short film chronicling the
character’s 75 years is currently in the works.
“Society
always needs heroes. It always needs a black and white sense of
justice. With his kind of power, Superman could’ve either been the
master of mankind or the servant of mankind. You’ve got to give credit
to the hero with that kind of power who wants to serve,” said former
“Superman” and “Action Comics” writer/artist George Pérez. “He is not a
super-hero, but the super-hero.”
Former “Action
Comics” writer David Michelinie added: “He’s the ultimate good guy. In
his purest incarnations, ignoring his occasional side-trips to the dark
side dictated by societal and pop culture fads, he’s the guy who will
always do the right thing, who will risk everything to save another
human being and prevent pain, misery, or tragedy.”
Longtime fans of the Man of Steel have
been waiting for this release for quite some time. The first in DC's
new Superman Cover to Cover series, this phenomenal statue highlights
our enduring hero as he appeared on the cover of Superman #1, based on
artwork of Superman co-creator Joe Schuster.
Each release in this series will
recreate in three dimensions the original art of a different classic
Superman comic book cover. The artwork on one side of the box has the
figure of Superman removed, so the statue can be displayed in front of
it to re-create the cover image in three dimensions.

CAPTAIN BRITAIN TATTOO
(2000), based on art by Ron Lim
I'm a big Perez fan also and I first found the Homages page and saw the cover to Superman #1, Action Comics #643 and a cover to someone's indy comic with their character in the same pose.
I don't know how (or if) I
can add anything so thought I'd send an e-mail and offer my own pieces
for your site if you'd like to share them with others.
The first is a lightly pencilled image
of Captain Marvel (I've had to darken the image on computer to print)
by Tom Grummett that I had him draw for me at UKCAC (United Kingdon
Comic Art Convention) in 1993 showing CM in the Superman #1 pose. I'm
from the UK but live in CA, USA now.
The second is a 11" x 17" commission I
had done in 2000 by Ron Lim, inked by Robert Jones and shows Captain
Britain in new costume designed by Alan Davis. This is also based on
the pose from Superman #1 although Cap is facing the opposite way.
The third is my tattoo using the art
from my Captain Britain commission. I also have a tattoo of Marvelman
and in the next few months am getting CB in original costume, followed
by my Captain Marvel art by Tom Grummett.
Right now, and the reason I was after
the image from Action #643 (I have a copy framed on the wall but just
wanted to quickly print one out), is that I already have a Superman S
Sheld tattoo and under it I'm looking at either Superman from Superman
#1 or George's Action #643 version.
Trouble is that I can't decide which. I
want to go with the original becase it is the original but then also
love Perez's work and that Superman cover in particular.
Anyway, sorry to have rambled on and
hope I didn't get confusing. As I've used the whole Superman #1 pose
for some original art and I'm now basing my tattoo's 'round it as well
I just kind of wanted to share it with some others.
This is the first in a series of
affordably priced statues that feature Superman as he appeared on
classic covers from his long history! The famous cover to Superman #1
by Joe Shuster is an icon on its own, and now it's brought to
three-dimensional life in this accurately sculpted statue by Tony
Cipriano. This limited-edition, hand-painted cold-cast porcelain statue
measures approximately 7.5" tall x 6.5" wide 3" deep and is packaged in
a 4-color box.

Shadowflame 4 cover. Homage to George's Superman
posted 9/30/03 8:08 AM
I am a huge George Perez fan. I am also
a huge Superman fan and I am working on a story where Shadowflame finds
out he is not the first to wear the costume (or a reasonable facimile
of it). So I did an Homage of Superman #1. I used George's Action
Comics cover and the original for reference (plus added a little of
myself) I am always being told I am an old school looking artist. I
always take it as a compliment. Here it is:
The book is called THE STANDARD CATALOG
OF COMIC BOOKS (ISBN 0-87341-916-2), and is written by the same people
who edits and publishes COMIC BUYERS GUIDE. It is a little expensive at
$34.95, but it's worth it if you're a collector as it is a good price
guide and checklist, and for the fact that it's 1237 pages long.
Although, in most guides, they do tend
to miss certain variant comics and/or just plain inaccurate. I just
checked the 31st Edition to OVERSTREET'S COMIC BOOK PRICE GUIDE, which
is the latest version, and it still lists DARK HORSE #50 as having a Pérez story (see "Settlements").
Anyway, in addition to a summary of some
titles, SCCB also list, in some cases, Diamond Preorder numbers and
Capital City's order numbers. What I found very interesting is that THE NEW TEEN TITANS: THE JUDAS CONTRACT TP
is quite rare! According to this book, Capital City only received and
shipped 2,500 copies (note this number does not include Diamond
Distribution).
Circulation Statement: 166,903
Diamond Preorders: 194,439
Statement, filed 10/1/97,; avg print run 209,391; avg sales
163,342; avg subs 2,704; avg total paid 166,046; samples 270; office
use 125; max existent 166,441; 21% of run returned
The book was actually designed as
a price guide, but I mostly find the circulation statements more
interesting than the actual list value.
Personally, I always think a value of a comic book is based on the
buyer's wants and needs (not dictated by a book). I disagree with some
of the prices on the catalogue - just like you'd find WIZARD's pricing
ridiculous.
The induction of Comics Guaranty LLC
(CGC) in the price guide, I find a little annoying. I don't believe in
CGC and I find the people buying them at extraordinary prices a little
crazy. For about $600 for a perfect "10"
SPAWN #1,
you can get a pretty cool three figures unique George Pérez artwork, or
heck, get yourself a new digital camera. Basically, the guide lists how
many comics were CGC'ed and what the highest number it got. For
instance, INHUMANS #1
there were 32 sent in to be graded and the best of the lot is a grade
of 9.6.
According to this guide, we're supposed to multiply 7 to its worth
(which is valued at $8), so a CGC 9.6 INHUMANS #1 should fetch about
$56.
As always, opinions expressed here are strictly my own. Buy this book, it's worth it!
