*DC: Here’s a nice set of poly-bagged Collector’s Editions telling the story of the Death & Rebirth of Superman, all sealed in their original bags. Headlined by the Superman #75 Platinum Edition, numbered 6982 in NM condition. The Platinum Edtions were distributed one per retailer and are keenly sought after when they come up for sale. It is accompanied here by the black poly-bagged Superman #75 Collectors’ Edition in NM- (due to a small patch of label residue on the poly-bag); both Platinum & Collector’s Editions come complete with the same extras: comic with fold out splash back cover, memorial poster, commemorative stamps, Daily Planet obituary, black mourning armband and trading card. Finally, Superman is back in Adventures of Superman #500 (NM) in its white poly-bag, complete with 64 page comic with removable translucent cover, 8 extra story pages and trading card. These were hugely hyped and popular when they were published — I can remember Superman #75 selling out in no time flat in every London comic shop the day it came out in 1993.
