No Poster in the Action Comics #1000 Hardcover

DC Comics has confirmed to retailers that, as reported, the Action Comics #1000: 80 Years Of Superman hardcover planned for April will indeed bye $29.99 rather than the $49.99 price point it was increased to over Christmas. And it now has a final order cutoff date for February 5th, giving retailers time to amend their orders.

The poster, which features all one thousand Action Comics covers, will now be offered as a separate item with ordering details to come soon.

Action Comics #1000: 80 Years Of Superman hardcover remains a 384-page title with an on-sale date of April 11. Expect full details of the comics' contents soon. Here is the original listing.

Superman and DC celebrate the anniversary of an American cultural touchstone moment with this original graphic novel anthology ACTION COMICS #1,000: 80 YEARS OF SUPERMAN, which features a previously unpublished Golden Age Superman epic!

Join us for an 80th anniversary celebration of the single most important comic book in American history: ACTION COMICS #1, featuring the first appearance of Superman! It's an extraordinary party as we revisit classic stories from across the decades featuring the debuts of not just the Man of Tomorrow, but also Supergirl, Brainiac, the Fortress of Solitude and so much more!

See the work of generations of top writers and artists on the original super hero! Enjoy sparkling essays from literary wizards who have won Pulitzer Prizes and hit the New York Times bestseller lists, including Jules Feiffer, who relives his memories of when ACTION COMICS #1 first hit newsstands. Plus, a historical essay by guest editor Paul Levitz, and all one thousand ACTION COMICS covers presented on a special poster!

As a bonus, don't miss a previously unpublished 1940s Superman tale believed to be by writer Jerry Siegel with art by the Joe Shuster studio, salvaged from the DC Comics files fifty years ago and hidden away until now.

This new hardcover serves as a companion to the ACTION COMICS #100 comic book coming in March!
