Grading guides

The Superman #75 in context

Why collectors care

Superman #75 (1993) is "The Death of Superman," a cultural-event comic that became one of the best-selling issues of all time. It is the defining modern DC key of the era.

How to identify it

Several editions exist: the standard newsstand and direct copies, the black-bag Direct Market Memorial edition (with poster, stamps, obituary, armband, and a trading card), and the numbered Platinum edition (about 10,000 made). The bagged sets are worth far more complete and sealed.

Common mistakes

The book was printed in enormous numbers, so a plain opened copy is common. Value concentrates in sealed black-bag sets with all inserts, the Platinum edition, and high-grade newsstand copies. Later printings exist.

Grade considerations

For the common editions, grade is the story; the black cover shows wear easily. Complete, sealed bagged editions and the numbered Platinum are the premium tiers.
