RECOMMENDED READING: TWO DC FACSIMILE EDITIONS FOR YOUR COLLECTION...

Copyright DC COMICS

A couple of recent releases, Crivs, that some of you may be interested in.  First up, above, is the Facsimile Edition, of Secret Origins [of] Super Villains, which is one I'm pretty sure I had, as many of the interior pages seem familiar to me, with the exception of the Batman/Red Hood story, which I don't recall from this mag.  I know the story from a Giant Batman issue I bought in Rothesay in 1970, but if I recognised it again in the above mag at the time, I've since forgotten, unusually for me.

Next up, below (yes, I'm aware that's a contradiction-in-terms), is the first ish of the two-part Alan Moore story that brought to a conclusion the Silver and Bronze Age eras of Superman, before John Byrne (and others) launched a new direction for the character, in the wake of Crisis On Infinite Earths that revised the entire history of the DC Universe.  I still have my original issues, and it's quite a jolt to realise they're now 40 years old.  Rush out and buy these great facsimiles today.
