The Roaring Nineties
 |
| Superman #75 - an estimated 6m copies sold! |
 |
| Superman #75 bagged Platinum Edition - aimed squarely at collectors/investors |
 |
| Unity #1 - the crossover would help put new Valiant Comics on the map, and launch the 90s mega-crossover fad |
 |
| Dale Keown's Pitt #1 - the second issue would take 6 months to arrive |
 |
| Tribe #1 from Larry Stroman - another where the second issue took 6 months |
 |
| Spawn #21 - released before #19 & 20 because they were running so far behind |
 |
