Talk:Superman III (1971)

jayfort sent this along:

I was browsing through your Supermanica Encyclopedia the other night when I noticed an error on the Superman III entry.

The text references a Superman story in Action Comics in the early 70s in which Superman dies and is replaced by a Superman II and, later, a Superman III; who were basically clones/androids. The picture with the article states something about Superman III before he received his S. The story the article describes and the picture are from two different stories.

The picture is from another series of stories that I believed were published in were published in Superman comics (not Action) and were about an aged Superman's grandson, Superman III, who was completing the training program set by his father and grandfather before earning his S.

Yeah, he's right...the weird thing is, the picture caption DOES identify the later story, strange...--MatterEaterLad 20:00, 31 July 2006 (EDT)

Maybe a "Superman Three" entry?

Perhaps Superman 3 is a better name? Write it! --Super Monkey 20:06, 31 July 2006 (EDT)
