Why did Lex Luthor never appear on the 1950s Superman TV show with the late George Reeves?
Back in the 1950's, the concept of a "Super Villain" on television would have been less than palatable. The TV of the day was filled with goodness and light, nothing but fair play, and the good guys always won in the end. For a villain to reach "Super" status, he would have to win occasionally. If Superman jailed him every time they tangled, he would just be an ordinary villain.
There probably was an agreement of some sort back then that had the bad guys always lose on every show. There was something about a "Crime Doesn't Pay" rule being in place back then. All that would explain why Lex Luthor never showed up.
No other costumed baddies ever showed up either. It was kind of strange that Superman, the guy that has all the powers anyone could want, fought ordinary bank robbers and such, while Batman, a guy with no super abilities at all (being an expert martial artist, gymnast, scientist, etc. does not qualify as a super power) fought nothing but cagey, costumed criminals with diabolical, dastardly devices (talking about that 1960's campfest gets one all alliterative).
Is there going to be a superhero movie for Martian Manhunter?
They have not said anything about one for him- but a Justice League movie is being planned and he may possibly appear in it.
How much is batman 608 rrp worth?
Hard to say without getting into some details:
1. What condition is the book in? Obviously this is one of the biggest factors in determining the price of any collectible.
2. Is it 'slabbed'? Professionally graded books often sell for not only higher amounts, but are generally easier to sell as well, since the buyer has a good idea of what they're receiving.
3. Like any collectible, price is determined by supply and demand. If nobody demands it, then it's worth nothing. In other words, the book is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

Who owns the rights to the Superman logo?

In the Superman comics does Clark Kent's father die?
His real parents died in the Krypton disaster. His adoptive parents, the Kents, died over the course of the Superboy narrative. Their cause of death was a tropical island plague Superman could not solve or cure. Naturally they kind of glossed over this just showing a brief visit to a cemetery after the incident. In one of the newer Superboys- the Kents are still alive. However, that is a different chronology.
