Born in the distant 1939 these comic series contained eleven stories of superheroes. The first of these was dedicated to the legendary hero Superman who from there saw his fame grow over time: the first Superman series, debuted in those years to end in 2011 after 714 issues dedicated to the superhero. The success encountered by the character pushed the publisher to dedicate his own title to him, the first for a superhero who in the forties sold over a million copies a month. To this day the album containing the first appearance of Superman is considered, within the collector's market, one of the most valuable pieces. It is estimated that of the over 200,000 copies printed at the time, today only 34 originals remain, without any restoration work. The Action Comics then became DC Comics, together with the other giant, as well as its competitor, Marvel, compete over the years for the primacy in the market of comics and superhero films. Among those already mentioned, there are also other famous characters created by the publishing house DC Comics: Batman , OMAC One Man Army Corps a one-man army lives its adventures among cyborgs and genetic mutations, Big Barda a ruthless warrior, Firestorm two people united in a single creature capable of changing the atomic structure of matter, Power Girl created to represent an adult and mature version of Supergirl, Shazam a very strong superhero in a red suit, Wonder Woman the female alter ego of Superman, the intergalactic sentinel Green Lantern and the very famous Flash, the fastest man in the world.
