Description

You will believe that a man can fly and that a Dark Knight has returned in this box set collecting two spin-off graphic novels based on Richard Donner's Superman- The Movie and Tim Burton's Batman! Superman '78 by Robert Venditti and Wilfredo Torres pits the Man of Steel against the alien menace of Brainiac, forcing Superman to make a life-changing sacrifice- leave the planet that he has come to call home in order to save it. Then, in Batman '89, original Batman screenwriter Sam Hamm and artist Joe Quinones pick up where the 1989 film left off by introducing the villainous Two-Face to the Tim Burton movie universe. This box set is a must-have for fans of the original motion pictures who want to rewatch the adventures of their favorite DC heroes again and again.
