SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
Note - this issue is where we find out the true identity of Cyborg Superman to be none other than Hank Henshaw! Check out this book in my Custom Set and then see the next two slots to see Hank's first appearance in cameo, and then first full appearance!
From the 'NO ONE CAN KILL SUPERMAN!' collection.
This is a really cool book that I was really happy to finally add to my collection! There is a comic site online that seems to have plentiful copies of this second printing for sale for $4.00 each. I have completed two orders of three books each but, even though the site lists them as NM, I have yet to receive a copy that I felt was a solid 9.8. I'm not holding it against the seller though because I had also gotten the two raw GL 46 second printings from them through eBay, and the raw MOS 19 third printing through their site, and those all came back 9.8. I was going to order another three of these raw when I was able to get this book, along with the others from this same collection.
This was the lone 9.8 in the census when I added it. I have included a picture of the first, second, and collector’s printings of this book in the second picture slot from when I first collected them. It was the only place you could see all three printings together all graded 9.8 at the time... enjoy!
I have since added a Signature Series copy of the Collector's Edition and a Universal of the first printing to my collection. I reholdered this book in December 2020... all of these copies have slots in my Custom set!
Update - I did eventually submit one of the raw copies I had gathered and it became only the fourth 9.8 to enter the census in June 2022! I'm not sure exactly where I got that specific copy though because I seem to be constantly going through my raws and reorganizing them into submit or not to submit categories. Wherever it came from... so happy to add a second 9.8 copy of this beautiful book to my collection and have it be from my own submission!
