WOW!!! Back issue special on STM 40th is fantastic!

Yesterday, received this magazine in the mail (I had pre=ordered)---
and it was easily the BEST magazine from front to back- It's INCREDIBLY packed--- The book is packed with art and photos laid out in a really pleasant fashion (I'm a stickler for that with collectible print material) I know this sounds like spam, but I was shocked at how thorough this magazine was in celebrating different aspects of the Superman movie- with very little repeat information. If there is repeat info, then there's also usually an additional aspect or two that still provides something new. I just wish this was in hardcover-

Anyhow, I've enjoyed previous 'Back Issue' magazines, but this one went beyond my expectations. I highly recommend this before it sells out.

That sounds fantastic. It’s even better because something like that is extra special in an era where print is dying. I miss seeing really jam packed maxazines like that. Not for the news but for great exclusive material.

Back Issue Magazine definitely seems like a labor of love- I pick them up now and then when the cover story mentions something I'm interested in. I was going to pick up this issue regardless, but I didn't expect the issue to be 99% STM related.
The pricing is $7.61 plus shipping..... but with a number of medium-end magazines priced at $19 or $20, this is definitely a great buy- (plus, it includes the digital copy!).

Some of the images are a bit smaller than I would have liked ( There's a few Jerry Ordway Superman pieces in the past that are here, plus the fantastic Jon Pinto STM poster gets a full page, among other pieces of art).... but, I think it's about $10-ish including postage.

Some of the back issues do sell out that are popular, this one might do so in print.

Anyhow- yeah, highly highly recommended.

That’s not a bad price. Especially for what it is.

Their "Back Issue" of the Legion sold out twice. Most don't, but I think once word gets around, this one will, too.
