Discounts of Steel

   

The DC Summer of Supergirl Sale runs through Monday, 8/10.

If you’re thinking “didn’t they have this sale in June?” your memory is correct. But hey, we’re not arguing with some of the $4.99 prices they’ve got mixed into the sale.

Supergirl

Something about a film…

First, the one that seems most directly related to the film: Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King & Bilquis Evely.

• Supergirl: The Silver Age – Vol. 1 and Vol. 2
• The Daring New Adventures of Supergirl (’82-’84) – Paul Kupperberg / Carmine Infantino
• Supergirl Adventures: Girl of Steel (Superman Adventures (’96-’02)) – Evan Dorkin / Sarah Dyer / Mark Millar / Adam Beechen / Bret Blevins / Terry Austin / Aluir Amancio / Ethen Beavers

• Supergirl and the Legion of Super-Heroes (’05-’09) – Mark Waid / Barry Kitson

Superman

• Action Comics (’37 – ’11) – The Original
• Action Comics (’11-’16) – Best known for the opening arc by Grant Morrison & Rags Morales
• Action Comics (’16-present) – The better Superman title for _most_ of this period. The Phillip K. Johnson Warworld sequence is particularly good.
• Superman (’39 – ’11) – The original solo series
• Superman (’16-’18) – Peter J. Tomasi / Patrick Gleason
• Superman (’18 – ’21) – Brian Bendis / Ivan Reis and then a bit of the Phillip Kennedy Johnson run

• Superman ’78 – Robert Venditti / Wilfredo Torres; Continuing the continuity of the original film series (i.e. Christopher Reeves)
• Superman: Birthright – Mark Waid / Leinil Francis Yu
• Superman: The Death of Superman – The whole sequence through “Return” cordoned off as a series
• Superman: For All Seasons – Jeph Loeb / Tim Sale
• Superman: The Man of Steel (’91-’03) – John Byrne / Marv Wolfman / Jerry Ordway; The John Byrne era
• Superman: Son of Kal-El – Tom Taylor / John Timms; The adventures of Jon Kent
• Superman Smashes the Klan – Gene Yang / Gurihiru
• Superman: Up in the Sky – Tom King / Andy Kubert

Lobo

Something about that same film.

• Lobo (’90) – Alan Grant / Keith Giffen / Simon Bisley

One of the somewhat rare ’80s reprints that we’ve enjoyed is Superman: The Phantom Zone by Steve Gerber and Gene Colan. This is a very odd, horror-flavored Superman tale as he confronts something unnatural that’s been living in the Phantom Zone… but you weren’t expecting Gerber & Colan to give you the ’50s TV version, were you?

Superman Smashes the Klan has Gene Yang and Gurihiru revisiting and revising the original Superman radio show arc, “Clan of the Fiery Cross.” It’s on the YA side of Superman, but has picked up a LOT of good reviews.

Superman, the current series by Josh Williamson and Jamal Campbell is also on sale and it’s a good one.

Lobo by Giffen/Grant/Bisley is really good stuff… as long as you have a dark sense of humor and aren’t easily offended.
