Easy! Do what everyone else does when they hit their 500th post: Compile a Greatest Hits Retrospective...only I'll be adding a Superman twist! Just like on those cheesy flashback episodes of TV sit-coms, I'll stroke my chin and look thoughtful while the wavy screen effect transports us back to Superman-themed posts from the previous 22 months of Comic Coverage ("Why, I remember it like it was yesterday....")
Tomorrow...new stuff, but for today? A backward glance. Enjoy!
But also some of the best.

Happy 500th post, Mark! I've already read quite a few of those flashed-back posts (first time through), and I'll undoubtedly be savoring the rest over the next few days...
Congrats on a great and successful blog. Up, up and away!

Now's your chance to tell us what you really think about Eddie Berganza. I'm not sure if any of his comics are in my collection.

Oh, and don't forget if you do that you usually run a PG blog here. :)

Hmm, the Comments link on the June 3 post is broken for some reason, so I'll put this here.
The photo of the newsstand with Action Comics #1 for sale is apparently doctored, according to this blog post:
