A fully updated guide to Superman's entire comic book career.

Discover and explore the world of the original and greatest of all Super Heroes—Superman, the Man of Steel!

He sprang fully formed and unstoppable from the pages of Action Comics #1 in June 1938. Superman has been a jewel in DC's crown ever since, fueling a plethora of movies and TV shows.

Packed with spectacular art from the original comic books, this definitive volume brings Superman's story right up to date, with full details of his latest exploits in major storylines such as The Final Days of Superman, Superman Reborn, and Adventures of Superman—Jon Kent.

With in-depth profiles of Superman's allies and enemies, a detailed timeline, landmark comics, and much more, Superman The Ultimate Guide The Man of Steel New Edition is both a superb guide to a timeless cultural icon—who in 2025 hurtles back on movie screens in Superman—and a prize addition to any fan's bookshelf.
