2018 marks the 80th birthday of the big guy himself - the OG superhero.
Superman first appeared in Action Comics #1 in 1938.

He was one of a very small group of people who shaped the Marvel Universe, which rocked and redefined the comics world, and ...

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, June 25, 2018
I have been helping with the featured comic section for the last five years. A while back, a comic creator on The Duck asked how a comic gets featured, and this was the explanation:
