Today I present the first level of The Death and Return of Superman video game for the Super Nintendo. I recently snagged a copy of this and have been trying to find the time to seriously play it as my wife and I actually have a working SNES in the house. So far I have gotten through two levels and while it is far from the best Superman game out there it is a lot of fun. At least to me. I freely admit that that opinion could simply be nostalgia talking but at the same time I didn’t own this game when it first came out so I don’t know if I can be nostalgic about something I didn’t have in my misspent youth.
Anyway, here’s a video I found on YouTube of the first level. This is as close of an adaptation of Superman: The Man of Steel #18 as we may ever get. Enjoy.

This was one of my favorite games as a kid on the Sega system 😀
I remember playing this game on the Genesis. I think I quit after I beat Doomsday.
I remember this game as well, only it was the Genesis version. My Dad used to rent video games for me at Blockbuster. The Death and Return of Superman was among the games that we rented but did not buy. That is a shame considering how this might be one of the better Superman games out there. I do have Justice League Task Force, though!
