                DOOMSDAY:  THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN TRADING CARDS

The Doomsday cards were issued by Skybox International for DC Comics.  The
cards consist of scenes from the issues of the Superman titles that lead
to the "death" of the character.  The cards labelled C1-C9 consist of covers
from the "Funeral For a Friend" storyline, which followed the Doomsday
issues.  The card text was written by Roger Stern, current writer of
Action Comics.  The set also includes some special cards, but these do not
contain scenes from the actual comics.
 
Below is a detailed list of the books included in the card set.  The Superman
titles use a special numbering system on each cover (the number is in a
triangle).  These numbers make it easy to keep the various titles in proper
order.  The issues of Justice League America are not part of the Superman
series and therefore do not have diamond numbers.  All card art is by the
listed artist, unless noted otherwise.
