The first appearance of Superman just broke an all-time record for the highest comic book sale

June 12 was officially declared 'Superman Day' by DC Comics to honor the first and greatest superhero!

Though he doesn't look a day over 35!

In the Golden Age of Radio, one radio show 'for kids' was used to take down a chapter of the KKK.

Due to the ravages of 78 years and the use of cheap pulp, intact copies of Action Comics #1 are extremely rare.

Today is the birthday of the very first (and some would argue, greatest) superhero of all: Superman.

The Batman vs. Superman trailer came and went, and we still didn't get a great look at Ben Affleck in the traditional Batman costume (we’ll leave that armored suit out of this). We’ve all seen that black and white promo shot, but what does Batfleck look like in clear, full color? Today, we have that answer.

It’s a common complaint about modern movies: “They only made this to sell toys.” And sometimes, that’s actually true. But there was a time, not that long ago, when that concept didn’t even exist, and toys based on movies were barely an idea, much less a guarantee. Let’s take a stroll down memory lane (and by memory lane, I mean YouTube) and watch movie toys (and movie marketing) evolve through 40 years of vintage movie toy commercials, from Planet of the Apes to The Avengers.

Snyder dropped a few hints about his sequel, working under the tentative title 'Batman vs. Superman,' which, obviously features the caped crusad

Last week's champion, 'The Purge,' plummeted a massive 75% and fell to fifth place.

Man of Steel is already soaring at the box office. But is it a good Superman movie or just a pale action spectacle that happens to star a guy called Superman?

Until this day seventy-five years ago, there was no such thing as a "super-hero." Two young men, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, after years of trying and two failed versions, finally succeeded in selling their character, creating a legend in the process.

The 'Man of Steel' trailer is finally here and today we get our first good look at Superman, back in action! The original 'Man of Steel' teaser didn't offer up much but the full trailer is here and doesn't pull any punches. So let's dispense with the small talk and get right into the 'Man of Steel' trailer!

Superman's home planet Krytpon isn't fictional anymore! Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has discovered the real-life counterpart to the planet that is so deeply embedded in the 'Superman' canon.
