The Superman Chronicles

    (DC, 2006, 2012)
™ and © DC Comics, Inc.

For over sixty years he has been one of the most recognizable American icons.

An instant hit from his first appearance, Superman's popularity has grown through the decades—and today he known worldwide as the defender of Truth, Justice, and the American Way.

But his earliest stories reveal a Superman who took no prisoners, made his own laws and gleefully delivered his own brand of juistice—even if it meant dangling a crook by the ankle from above the city, or giving a wife-beater a taste of his own medicine. This was a Superman who embodied pure wish fulfillment, with his early adventures showing a raw super-hero in the making—and the development of an enduring classic!

DC Comics is proud to present this definitive and affordable collection of Superman's first stories. Assembled here are his earliest adventures from Action Comics #1–13, New York World's Fair Comics #1, Superman #1—including all covers.

For fans of The Man of Steel, both old and new—or of popular culture in general—The Superman Chronicles is an indispensable addition to any library!
