2014 Canadian $20 Iconic Superman™ Comic Book Covers: Superman Annual #1 from 2012 - 1 oz Fine Silver Coin
Released in 2012, Superman Annual 1 was the Man of Steel's first annual within the New 52 universe, which relaunched DC Comics titles in 2011 with revamped storylines. As Superman Annual #1's tagline suggests, “The Man of Steel faces an alien extinction” with the return of Helspont, a Daemonite who views humanity as the key to the genetic salvation of his people. Despite Superman's confident pose on the cover–and on the coin's reverse–he and Earth's heroes come under attack. Overpowering Superman, Helspont tells him he is sparing his life because he considers Superman to be the defender of his “investment.” With a final, taunting mention of Superman's father, Jor-El, Helspont leaves Superman to ponder his role and this latest threat to humanity:“Everything I've accomplished, every life I've ever saved–what good has it all been if someone so much more powerful than I am can just come and... take it all away?”
A great gift for collectors and Superman fans. Order yours today before they're all gone!

Design
Taken from Superman Annual #1, the coin's reverse image depicts the Superman of the New 52 universe as though he is stepping out of the image's field. As flashes of light crackle around him, his fixed, heated glare conveys strength and power. His blue and red Kryptonian battle armour is on full display; his familiar red cape crisply extends behind him as he moves away from the glinting Fortress of Solitude seen along the left edge. A series of concentric circles frame the image, further contributing to the design's dynamic movement by creating an optical effect of motion.
Packaging
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a premium graphic case.
