Our review
Superman #75 is one of the picks we point people to most often in the DC space. It sits in our key issues shortlist because it does the obvious thing well: the death of superman — the best-selling issue of its era.
Across 20 reviews it holds a 4.8 average, and the complaints that do show up are consistent and minor rather than deal-breaking. We compared it against the other comics in this price bracket and it stayed on the list every time.
At from $25 it lands in our beginner tier — a very low-risk first purchase if you're just getting into the hobby.
Pros
- Complete story in one volume
- Reprint quality is excellent
- Ages well on a shelf
Cons
- Paper stock is thinner than a premium omnibus
- Goes out of print in waves
Who should buy it
Anyone starting out, or shopping for a gift under $50.
Price check
