Gladiator II doesn't do enough to set itself apart from the original. It justifies its existence but could have been better.

Superman Breaks The Walls Down in Superman #116 UK Edition, at Auction
Who else loves a great silly Superman cover like this one taking bids at Heritage Auctions today.We just love looking at these.
Superman and his family of books feature some of the silliest and best covers you will find on the market. I love just standing in my shop and laughing at old Superman covers, as well as Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen. You haven't lived until you spend an afternoon going through the back issue bins and laughing at the DC Comics covers from back then. This one, for the cover of #116 and a UK Edition, is no different. Why would Supes need a giant fist contraption to break through anything?? Great stuff. You can bid on a CGC 5.5 copy today at Heritage Auctions, and what a deal. It currently sits at only $1. Check it out below.
