Supermen – Issue #32 – Bilka Yayınları Extra Series (Circa 1984)

Description:

This issue belongs to the “Supermen” extra series published by Bilka Yayınları between 1982 and 1994, consisting of a total of 143 issues. The series was later republished under the title “Süper Seri” in 80 collected volumes. The name “Supermen” reflects the localized Turkish usage of the character’s name during that era.

These albums typically compile multiple stories into a single issue, often without following the original American publication order. The series includes not only core Superman stories but also broader DC content, offering readers a varied selection of adventures. Many of the covers were uniquely illustrated by Turkish artists, making them distinct from their American counterparts and highly collectible.

Although original U.S. editions were printed in full color, most of this Turkish series was printed in black and white due to high production costs. Early issues sometimes featured partial color printing; however, this issue is printed in black and white.

This Issue #32 features a cover illustrated by a Turkish artist and brings together a selection of Superman-centered material alongside stories from related DC titles and Superboy content, forming a multi-title anthology.

The issue includes “Superman’in Kılıcı” (Superman Annual #10), “Bunu göze alamam” (Adventure Comics #391), and “Ölmek istiyorum” (World’s Finest Comics #309), along with “Dahi Luthor’un Planı” (The New Adventures of Superboy #11). These stories collectively present a mix of Superman adventures, team-up style narratives, and Superboy-focused content, unified within a single collected edition.
