DC Comics, The Hero Initiative Team Up for ‘The Superman 100 Project’

The compilation of original cover drawings for ‘Superman #6’ features art by Alan Davis, Kevin Eastman, José Luis García-López, Dan Jurgens, Ed McGuinness, Frank Miller, Frank Quitely, and others; paperback and a limited-edition hardcover release on December 18.

The Hero Initiative, the charity that assists comic book creators in medical and financial need, is celebrating Superman with The Superman 100 Project, a paperback compilation of original cover drawings for Superman #6.

“We’re thrilled to collaborate with DC to celebrate Superman and show fans what the character has meant to comics and the culture,” stated Hero Initiative president Jim McLauchlin. “The original comic book covers that will be published in The Superman 100 Project are truly impressive and sure to be a hit with fans and collectors.”

In 2023, DC Comics produced a precious few blank-covered card stock editions of Superman #6, and since then, the Hero Initiative has asked 100 top artists to do original drawings right on the covers. The result is The Superman 100 Project, publishing on December 18 as a trade paperback book collecting all the original sketch covers.

Art is by Alan Davis, Kevin Eastman, José Luis García-López, Dan Jurgens, Ed McGuinness, Frank Miller, Frank Quitely, and many others. See all the original art, along with a special behind-the-scenes section showing developmental art along with additional bonus content.

The original sketch covers will be auctioned off starting in October. A limited-edition hardcover will also be available direct from the Hero Initiative and Third Eye Comics on December 18. The book will only be printed once.
