[Superman Fan Club] Presents: THE SECRET SOCIETY OF SUPER-VILLAINS Week 12

Wow back then Superman was as ubiquitous in DC Comics as Batman is now LOL.

I’m real sure the Superman movie wasn’t out for another year because I remember sitting and watching it two times in a row in a Philly suburb theater when I was in seminary …so that had to be 1978.

Okay the two volumes of The Secret Society iof Super Villains are now on DC Universe Infinite Ultra! (featuring the one time they really do fight Superman)

Who has Ultra (or access otherwise to the issues we’ve been missing) and can join a reading for the issues that are only in this Omnibus 2 volume set?
