Owner's Description

<i>From the 'NO ONE CAN KILL SUPERMAN!' collection.</i>

I was able to get this copy as well as the second printing at the same time from one very awesome fellow collector. At the time, I had a raw copy that I had very high hopes for waiting to go in with my next submission. When I got the chance to buy this book, my raw copy immediately came out of my submission stack to make space for other books. I have commented before on how I enjoy the title color changes on the various books and this one is no exception. This book has title colors that are more earthy in tone, which is different from the rest in the set, but they work very well with the art.

In the second picture slot I have included a picture of all three printings when they were first brought together… <i>very cool!</i>

I had both the second and third printings of this book reholdered in February 2021.

Update - In June 2022 a copy of this book that I submitted was graded 9.8! I'm not sure if it was the raw that I referred to above or a different book because, by the time I had submitted it, a lot of raw books had accumulated in my collection. Whichever book it was, I am very happy to have had the experience of submitting a copy of this rare third printing and have it come back a 9.8!
