Supermen – Issue #76 – Bilka Yayınları Extra Series (June 1990)
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 #76 features a cover illustrated by a Turkish artist and was published in June 1990. It presents a mix of standalone stories and a connected three-part Superman storyline from late-1980s series.
The issue includes “Kurt Adam” (World’s Finest Comics #214) and “Burasını Hiç Beğenmedim” (World’s Finest Comics #302), alongside a three-part storyline: “Lütfen Dediğimi Yap” (Adventures of Superman #448), “Süpermen Nerede?” (Superman #26, 1987 series), and “Yardım Edin” (Adventures of Superman #449), forming a continuous narrative arc.
