"Double Lives!" Story by Roger Stern. Art by Steve Rude and Al Milgrom. One is half a ton of primordial rage and fury and the product of modern science. The other is the last son of the doomed planet Krypton and endowed with abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Rendered in nostalgic 1950's-style artwork, this book tells the tale of "What if these two met?" What if these comic book icons had been born under the same banner? What will happen when the man-monster known as the Hulk, the strongest one there is, meets Superman, the Man of Steel and perhaps the greatest superhero of them all? Cover price $5.99.
