43:39 I think I wanted to get the death issue, but it was super hard to get my hands on (very popular issue). I wasn't as into it, but I thought there would be social implications to him dying. I liked Superman Red and Blue which came after.
I was more into Marvel but I was interested. Not really interested in the character designs. Seemed very low-stakes for the death of Earth's Greatest Superhero. Nice outro/sting!
@@RoqueInc The story fell flat at the end (I think there was reduced interest in the last quarter of the story). They cut it short, which gave less of a payoff. There were implications which weren't realized.
Perfect thumbnail 😄
HAHAH 👍👍👍
42:32 Reign of The Supermen. I liked Superboy and the one with the big black rectangle most.
40:32 You would think he would!

@@cranberrylangers3095 I remember some people referred to the Red and Blue versions as "Electric Bugaloo Superman"

😲 Big Guy fell over!
He’s such a jerk
I had a line at the store for the Death Superman.DC let us sell it the night before the release date.We sold two cases that night.
I love hearing these kind of details! It was definitely a landmark event in comics history. We haven't seen one of those in a long time.
