Are any of the 1990 superman comics worth any money?

Whether a comic book from any time period has significant monetary value depends on many factors, such as the condition the book is in, (good as new vs. scribbled all over and torn) the popularity of the characters featured in it, (Batman vs. the Red Bee) the number of copies produced or remaining, (1,000 copies vs. 100,000 copies) and the events that occur within the issue (a popular character's first appearance, death, or a battle between two popular characters vs. a regular save-the-day story.)

Whether they have entertainment value, on the other hand, is mostly up to the skill of the writers and artists, along with the reader's personal tastes.

The year Superman first comic book appearance?

This depends upon your definition of a superhero. In terms of the modern, western concept of a superhero the first was Superman.

There had been leading heroes before in comics and the pulps (cheaply produced short fiction novels often featuring lurid tales of sex, violence and crime) featured some characters that were essentially superheroes. Comics are popular all around the world and the concept of bright costumes or super human powers is not unique to America and the UK.

The superhero as we know it, the whole package, is generally considered to be an American genre that started with Superman.

Superman was created by Jerry Siegal and Joe Shuster for Action Comics number one in 1938. Action Comics was published by National Comics which later became DC.

How do you become a super hero?

Let me ask you a question: why do you want to become a superhero? There are lots of ways to do it explained in the comics and on shows like Heroes, but the truth is, we can be super-heroic just as humans, by doing things that a lot of other people don't do... being truly kind, helping others, and saving other people from pain and anguish where possible. That is what we need in this world... not a few people who can fly and beat up bad guys, but real people who care and try to make things better rather than worse.

___

The real way to become a super hero is by doing what you know is the right thing even if no one else will. It'll put an impression on people. Yeah...just be nice to people and you're a superhero.

-----------------

When I was about 11 or 12, I wanted to be a Hero [super-heroes need super-powers] ... someone like a mixture of Tarzan, Phantom and the Panther.

At about 14, I found all these different articles - old heaters and different things that were stored in our washing house that we weren't using. I called myself The Red Star, and drew the perfect 5 point star in red and wrote a message on papers. At nighttime, I climbed over all the people's fences in our block, quieted their animals where necessary, slipped along their pathways, opened their back doors where I could [fortunately it was in summer and doors were not locked] and placed both note and article inside their back rooms.

That was my young career as a 'super-hero' - it all occurred over only a few nights ... but I just couldn't help laughing when I was talking a few days later to one of my young friends up the road, who said that he threw some junk item that the people 'next door' tossed over his fence [and that they had thrown it back again!!!]

Well, I was 22 before I did anything similar anonymously again.

Two of us building missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints decided one night we'd leave a surprise for all our fellow workers and supervisors for the next morning. We re-appeared at the site one night and loaded up more and more levels of scaffolding with the bricks, blocks and other things needed for the spire that we were building at the time. Well, we both had a real chuckle when they all turned up the next morning and stood around wondering and puzzling over the work that had been done during the previous night.

Why did John Shea leave the cast of 'Lois and Clark The New Adventures of Superman' after Season 1?

Websites indicate he was not getting along with the producers. But he did return in later seasons to guest appear in some episodes- so it is possible they were just not wanting the show to always have its episodes be stories of "Superman vs Lex Luthor".

Is Scott Reeves related to Christopher Reeves?

No- but they both seemed to have suffered a curse for playing the role of the most powerful superhero ever.

How many times has Superman died?

Technically, Batman has never actually died, although there are multiple times when he has thought to be dead.

Instead of killing him, the blast sent Batman back in time, where he struggled to return to his own time in the miniseries "The Return of Bruce Wayne."

Not sure they ever mentioned it in the comics, but Chris Reeves and Brandon Routh both claimed to be 215 lbs. in the Superman movies, as I recall. Superman IS supposed to be pretty solidly built, so that's a fair weight for him.

How strong is wonder woman compared to Superman?

Superman is generally written under the assumption he can lift in excess of 100 Quintillion Tons.

Often Superman can lift double that, with one hand, effortlessly.

(According to Batman, a Kryptonian has enough strength to shatter the Earth with a single punch.)

On a couple of occasions he's been shown lifting "half the weight of eternity" or moving "dozens of planets across the universe." even holding a micro Black Hole in his bare hands.

To squeeze coal into a diamond you need over a million tons of pressure to force the carbon atoms to align into the most rigid structure on earth. Superman does that with just one hand! So as for strength he is really impossibly strong. If Superman and the Silver Surfer REALLY had it out strength wise, the solar system would not be able to contain them. And as far the Hulk, Superman hands down.

Superman's strength level varies based directly on the amount of yellow sunlight he's been exposed to. He has been shown to vastly augment his powers by flying into the Sun. (Sun-dip)

What is Superman's task?

This is NOT a simple question. Superman's tasks include rightng injustice wherever he finds it. (When Spider-man's uncle tells him "with great power comes great responsibility," well, Superman has more power than pretty much any other superhero. His responsibilities are mind-boggling.) He is also charged with protecting all life, and has sworn never to take a life if he can help it. The old TV show said he battled for "Truth, Justice and the American Way." He also protects the earth itself and any planets that contain life.

10 cents

Along with a ten-year contract worth $30-$50k per year EACH, by far the highest in the industry...at a time when the avg yearly income was about $1300. Much (or even most) of what we think of as essential parts of the mythos were added by other writers, the Cartoons, serials or radio shows and then adapted into the comics. S&S were VERY well-compensated for what they produced.

How was Superman brave?

Who is stronger than the hulk?

Jennifer Walters, the savage, sensational She-Hulk has shown slow steady increases in her strength since she she made her debut in the early 80's. From the start, she was already much more powerful than the super-humanly strong Spider-Man, able to easily able to perform feats of strength such as tossing vehicles and busting down brick walls. Her original Marvel Universe entry listed her as being able to lift (press) at least 50 tons of weight. Later, during her time with Fantastic Four she was shown to lift 75 tons, and later still was able to fight the Thing (lifts 85 tons) to a standstill. Most recently, an update to her Marvel Universe entry in the back of the She-Hulk comic listed her as being able to lift over 100 tons. It has been established that the upper limits to her strength are unknown and could potentially be unlimited like her cousin, the incredible Hulk!
