Supreme (character)
Supreme is a fictional superhero created by Rob Liefeld and published by Image Comics (1992–96 and 2012–15), followed by Maximum Press (1996–98), Awesome Entertainment (1999–2000), and Arcade Comics (2006). Although Supreme was originally a violent, egotistical Superman archetype, he was retooled by Alan Moore as a tribute to Mort Weisinger's Silver Age Superman. The character had a 56-issue comic book series, a six-issue miniseries, and a revival in 2012 consisting of six issues. Beginning with issue #41, Moore's run was collected in two trade paperbacks from the Checker Book Publishing Group, ''Supreme: The Story of the Year'' and ''Supreme: The Return''. Moore's work on the series earned him an Eisner Award for Best Writer in 1997. Fictional character biography Supreme Supreme was introduced in issue #3 of Rob Liefeld's '' Youngblood'' limited series as a flip book story before he was spun off into his own series. His history varied; at one point, he was an angel ...

Silver Age Of Comic Books
The Silver Age of Comic Books was a period of artistic advancement and widespread commercial success in mainstream American comic books, predominantly those featuring the superhero archetype. Following the Golden Age of Comic Books and an interregnum in the early to mid-1950s, the Silver Age is considered to cover the period from 1956 to 1970, and was succeeded by the Bronze Age. The popularity and circulation of comic books about superheroes had declined following World War II, and comic books about horror, crime and romance took larger shares of the market. However, controversy arose over alleged links between comic books and juvenile delinquency, focusing in particular on crime, horror, and superheroes. In 1954, publishers implemented the Comics Code Authority to regulate comic content. In the wake of these changes, publishers began introducing superhero stories again, a change that began with the introduction of a new version of DC Comics' The Flash in '' Showcase'' # ...

Deathmate
''Deathmate'' was a six-part comic book Intercompany crossover, crossover between Valiant Comics and Image Comics published in 1993 in comics, 1993 and 1994 in comics, 1994. Background Designated by color rather than issue numbers (namely Yellow, Blue, Black, and Red) plus two book-end issues, ''Deathmate Prologue'' and ''Deathmate Epilogue'', as well as Preview issues collected with comic products, the four main issues were written so they could be read in any order. Created at the peak of the Comic book collecting#The Speculator Bubble, comic book speculator boom, the project was heavily promoted and sold hundreds of thousands of copies, but was beset with production delays. The Image half (Black, Red, and Epilogue) came out severely behind schedule and out of sequence. ''Deathmate Red'' shipped after the epilogue issue, and despite cover dates of September 1993 to February 1994, the actual publication lag was far longer than six months. The plot evolved around a chance interd ...
