The Death of Superman
"It's very difficult to overstate the importance of theDeath of Supermanand its following arcs...DC claims that this is the number 1 selling graphic novel of all time.  And while the story itself is dramatic and impacting, it's what this collection kicks off that really elevates it to legendary status. It's something that all true Superman fans have to read at least once." --Phillip Carson, acomicbookblog.com"The  only comic that ever made me cry; the story is told superbly, the art is incredible, and the emotion is palpable.  The final fight with Doomsday is amazingly captured, and I truly enjoyed the expanding panels  throughout the series until that final issue where every page was a splash-page.   The story was just that big and the expanding of the art helped to reflect that.  If you've ever been a Superman fan then this is a must-read."--Jamie Sigal, goodreads.com"The Death of Supermanremains a seminal moment in the history of comics and the character." --Michael Bailey"One of the most famous comic-book  stories of all-time, as the murderous creature known as Doomsday comes charging towards Metropolis with only Superman able to stop him. We know  Doomsday means business because we see him tear apart the entire Justice League. Only Superman can save his adopted city and the woman he  loves and he finds a way to save the day and kill Doomsday, but in the process, he gives up his own life. You don't get much more dramatic than  actually killing off freakin' SUPERMAN." --Brian Cronin
