Action Comics Reprint #1 Blank Cover Comic
Released 4/18/1938 Reprint released 4/18/2025 (Superman Day)
Action Comics #1 is the legendary debut of Superman, created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and widely regarded as the birth of the superhero genre. Published by National Allied Publications (later DC Comics), the issue featured Superman lifting a car on its iconic cover and introduced readers to Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and the concept of a hero with superhuman strength, speed, and moral resolve.
The original anthology also included stories like Zatara the Master Magician, Chuck Dawson, and Tex Thomson, but it was Superman’s 13-page adventure that captured imaginations and launched a cultural phenomenon. With a print run of 200,000 copies that quickly sold out, Action Comics #1 became the most valuable comic book in history, with pristine copies selling for millions.
The 2025 reprint, released on Superman Day, commemorates the 87th anniversary of the Man of Steel’s first appearance. This facsimile edition replicates the original layout, ads, and artwork, offering fans and collectors a chance to experience the comic that started it all.

Batman #1 marks the Caped Crusader’s first solo title, expanding his mythos and introducing two of his most iconic foes: The Joker and Catwoman (initially called “The Cat”).

The Joker debuts as a chilling, calculating killer who leaves Gotham in fear with his signature grin and deadly schemes. Catwoman enters as a mysterious jewel thief, sparking a flirtatious rivalry that would evolve over decades. The issue also features a return of Professor Hugo Strange, unleashing monstrous giants in a tale of science gone mad.
The 2025 facsimile reprint, released to celebrate Batman’s 85th anniversary, faithfully restores the Golden Age format, original ads, and cover art. It coincides with the launch of a new Batman #1 series, bridging legacy and modern storytelling.
