For the longest time I wanted to get one of my Favorite DC comics The Oversized Limited Collectors Edition Superman...I kept putting it off and putting it off..Yesterday I went to a Flea market and this guy had a Great near mint copy of it.

I had this as a Kid and the Image is my all time favorite of Superman actually when I think of him this is what I imagine. I think once I finish reading it I may Frame it...I love collecting these books and now I want to get even more of them.:grin:

Someone needs to talk Alex Ross into doing his take on this cover. Just to compare them.

I'm sure if Ross did his take on it it would look good but really I don't even think he can top HJ Wards painting.....That painting is spot on Superman.
