DC Comics Presents

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

DC Comics Presents... was a comic book published by DC Comics from 1978 to 1986 (97 issues plus 4 annuals) featuring team-ups between Superman and a wide variety of other characters of the DC Universe. (The final issue is an exception, instead featuring Superman in an "Untold Tale" involving the Phantom Zone.)

In addition to the feature stories, the series also included a semi-regular back-up series called "Whatever Happened to..." which featured stories revealing the status of various minor and little-used characters.

In addition, issue #26 included an insert previewing the upcoming New Teen Titans series by Marv Wolfman and George Perez. Another insert in issue #41 previewed the "new direction" Wonder Woman. It is also notable that DCCP #87 featured the first appearance and, in a back-up story, origin of the divergent Kal-El of the Earth Prime reality, who would become known as Superboy-Prime; this Superboy would play a role in the final issues of Crisis on Infinite Earths, and two decades later was corrupted into a villain and central figure of Infinite Crisis.

In 2004, the title DC Comics Presents was revived for a series of eight one-shot issues, each a tribute to DC editor supreme Julius Schwartz who had recently passed on. Each issue featured two stories based on a classic DC Comics cover of the past, reflecting Schwartz's frequent practice of commissioning a cover concept, then telling the writers to create a story around that cover.
