Superman vs Ali

December 24, 2009: "Superman vs. Muhammad Ali" Reprint Confirmed

Back in late October, Neal Adams indicated that a possible reprint edition of the 1978 never-reprinted "Superman vs. Muhammad Ali Special Edition" was forthcoming. DC Comics have now confirmed that that is indeed the case...

    The historic one-shot featured the Man of Steel teaming up with The Greatest Boxer of All Time to stave off an alien invasion of Earth.

    Why are we getting all nostalgic about this comic? Well, if the trip down memory lane isn't enough for you, here's some news: DC will be reprinting the story - co-plotted and written by Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams with art from Adams - in two formats: The first is a deluxe hardcover edition featuring an expanded sketch section and additional content with a new cover by Adams. For all those fans of the book in its tabloid form there is also a limited edition hardcover in the original trim-size with the complete, original cover of the landmark issue. Both collections will hit in the fall of 2010.
