The Death of Superman is the animated movie that shows the events of the Superman comic where he fought Doomsday, a kryptonian monster that only knows kill and destroy, and died fighting him.

The whole world and the justice league grieved his death. But then.....


4 other Supermen have emerged in his absence



The reign of the supermen is the sequel to death of Superman and tells the events of the comic of the same name. 4 supermen compete to claim the title of the real Superman but have their own agenda behind it, some good, and some bad.

Steel AKA John Henry Irons. He was an iron worker and created himself a steel suit with flight capability. And uses a hammer.

Superboy. Created by Cadmus’ Cloning research with kryptonian and human DNA. He behaves like a teen.

The Eradicator. Once a rouge kryptonian weapon that was destroyed by Superman by being tossed into the sun, he survived and recreated himself with a Superman like body.

And Cyborg-Superman AKA Hank Henshaw. An astronaut that was nearly killed but became a cyborg with kryptonian powers.

Sneak Peak


Looking forward to this movie.

I remember when the original comic series dropped.

This is good shit.
I'm hyped. This was such a big deal and I wasn't a super man fan even, a poor kid like me saved his pennies to get all the issues. Shit was mind blowing. Hell I skipped some savings and bubble gum and even batman comics to get these.

Mine aren't worth anything being far from mint and high press number. But man as a wee one it was just amazing. I don't think it aged perfectly but it was really mind blowing for kids. I'll always have a soft spot for it.

Also while the 4 person split is philosophy 101, all his splits were so cool and mind opening.

I do agree doomsday was better but I'll not say DAROS was bad at all. I'm hyped to watch this.

Until recently, I've only been into the Superman films with Christopher Reeve and Henry Cavill. But I've seen a lot of the DC cartoon features.

I'm totally interested in this Reign of the Superman subplot.

If I'm not mistaken, they show up briefly in the Superman 75th anniversary celebration video. Precisely at the 1:18 mark or so.

I checked out the novelization from the library when I was a kid, and reading it...I lost my teacups. I love this story. I love this arc. I love the shitty snes/genesis game that came with it.

This is one movie I cannot wait to see.

Ah, the classic time that Superman boxed Nobody In Particular.
