In the final issue, Superman #75, Superman and Doomsday go mano-a-mano in downtown Metropolis in an entire issue composed only in full-page splash panels.ĭoomsday may have been slight, as a villain, but The Death of Superman succeeded by diving deep into what his death would mean for a DC Universe where he’d been beloved and depended on for years.
The third-to-last comic in the arc had only three panels on each page the second-to-last, only two. But overall, it was a story that strove to be much more than a gimmick, in story and visuals.Īs Doomsday and Superman came closer to clashing, the reader’s window into the comics page literally got bigger. The Death of Superman was a 1992 crossover between DC Comics’ multiple Superman titles in which Superman tragically died saving Metropolis from an admittedly gimmicky space monster called Doomsday.
