Item Description

'JUST IMAGINE . . ' was a series of one-shots published by DC Comics at the dawn of the 21st century. It was the first work for DC Comics by Stan Lee, legendary co-creator of many of Marvel Comics most popular characters, in which he re-imagined the DC superheroes Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern and the Flash. As an in-joke, Lee changed several of the civilian names of most of the new superheroes to alliterative ones, in reference to Lee's tendency to use them for his Marvel Comics characters (Peter Parker, Bruce Banner, Sue Storm, etc.).

In each of the 'JUST IMAGINE . . ' issues, Lee worked with a prominent DC artist with an attachment to the characters -- here it was John Buscema. Here, Stan and John tell of an interplanetary policeman, Salden, chasing his most hated foe into the reaches of space, where he soon finds himself stranded on Earth. With new and remarkable powers from the alien atmosphere of Earth, he becomes a super-hero in hopes of accelerating humanity's progress toward the stars. But the Reverend Dominic Darrk has other plans for the newly invincible 'Superman'!

There is also a connected six-page Lois Lane back-up story by Michael Uslan and the always-entertaining Kyle Baker!

This big, square-bound 52-page issue is beautifully printed and contains an explanatory foreword by Stan Lee. There is typical Stan Lee angst mingled with action, and Buscema's art is as majestic and powerful as ever! The back cover shows a different artist's take on the new Superman - by none other than Adam Hughes!

This is a near pristine copy and can be yours for less than what Overstreet suggests, making this the most affordable copy (combined with our always-L•O•W shipping) to be found here on HipComic!
