"Somewhere else...

...Doomsday is here!"

I found this book at the Summer 2016 Denver ComicCon. This is one of my favorite Action Comics covers from the early '90s. I knew right away this book had 9.8 potential but I already had a graded copy, so I placed my raw copy in mylar and tucked it away. When I won one of the Best Presentation awards in the 2021 CGC Registry Awards for my Action Comics (Complete) set I decided to use the awarded grading credit to test my theory. I still have my first CGC graded example, which sits in my Action Comics (Complete) registry set. My first graded copy was only $30 and the first example of the book to have been graded 9.8 by CGC back in 2008.

Story continued in Superman: The Man of Steel #18 (12/92).
