La Mort de Superman #1

A torn, battle-worn Superman cape impaled on a makeshift flagpole against a darkened cityscape — the cover of this French-language Urban Comics collection says everything without a single word. Credited to Jurgens, Ordway, Simonson, and Stern, La Mort de Superman Volume 1: Un Monde Sans Superman gathers one of comics' most unforgettable storylines for francophone readers in a handsome 2013 edition. A striking and sobering image that sets the tone perfectly for the grief and uncertainty of a world without its greatest hero.
