Advance solicit On sale APRIL 1 40 pg, FC, $4.99 US RATED T
Where do worlds go when they die?
The Earthquakes felt round the Multiverse, Supermans lost days after Doomed, the Worlds End all these points will converge as the history of the DCU is spun from a new perspective, the perspective of a mad god and his arrogant child. The biggest story in DC history ties into literally every DC story ever told and it all begins here.
Kingdom Come, Red Son, Wild West Justice League, Captain Carrot and the Zoo Crew all the worlds you remember can still be found on Telos. Everything matters. Every story matters.
Dont miss the start of DCs April/May 2015 event with this special issue!
Well **** New52 is apart of this.

Huh. Interesting seeing the little differences in his Superman now vs. then.
Interesting.
His current take on Superman is slimmed down compared to his previous.

It sucks that after Convergence, this Superman will officially no longer exist...
DC needs two months of filler that won't require much editorial input (because they're all moving to a new office across the country), so they commissioned a bunch of "What If" stories about alternate versions of characters.

That cover looks terribly rushed. Particularly Batman.

Yeah, they're both slimmer. And his Supes looks more youthful now.

Off topic but, why is it that even though the comics list Superman at 6'3" 235 lbs, they often draw him to look about 6'6" 275 lbs?

Exclusive: DC Comics’ Movie-Themed March Covers Revealed
“Action Comics” #40 – Cover Art by Joe Quinones
With the “Horrorville” arc by Greg Pak and Aaron Kuder coming to a close, “Action Comics #40″ is set to take the action to much larger scale – apparently, into orbit. What better inspiration to call upon for such a daring – or should we say, excellent – adventure than the aptly-titled Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989)?
Supergirl” #40 – Cover Art by Marco D’Alphonso
As Kara Zor-El continues her time as a student of the mysterious ‘Crucible Academy’ in the latest arc from new creative team Mike Johnson, K. Perkins and artist Emanuela Lupacchino, the comparison to another famous girl far, far from home, is a fitting one. In fact, it’s hard to imagine any superhero that better encapsulates Dorothy’s sentiment that “there’s no place like home” than Supergirl.

Holy crap, that's awesome.
As part of their November auction, Heritage Auction House sold another copy of Action Comics #1, the historic first appearance of Superman. This copy was graded CGC GD/VG 3.0, with Cream to off-white pages.
As we have discussed as part of our "Stories of Action Comics #1", with the increased prices realized through recent auctions more copies of Action Comics #1 are bound to pop up.
Here is a good example, this 3.0 copy sold for $310,700. Lower grades are what most collectors are interested in as they are more affordable then the high grades. Well at least they are now.
