Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster and making his first appearance in June of 1938 in Action Comics #1, Superman has been fighting for “Truth, Justice, and the America way” for 78 years now.
Today, Dark Hall Mansion gives us a new look at this iconic character through the eyes of U.K. artist Matt Ferguson.
Dark Hall Mansion is pleased to reveal its latest officially licensed limited edition print release in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Entertainment, 1978’s, “Superman” by contemporary artist Matt Ferguson and available this Friday, May 13th!!

Dark Hall Mansion will release Matt Ferguson’s classically styled and dynamic limited edition print for one of his favorite films, 1978’s “Superman.” Matt was quite keen from the start as to exactly how he envisioned his Superman piece and precisely what scene he wished to render. Matt’s artwork captures not only a key moment within the film itself but one that encompasses several classic Superman fan elements that have shaped the man of steel’s legacy since its first incarnation in 1933.
“Superman” Standard Edition of 280 $65
“Superman” Select Foil Edition of 10 (based on Standard edition colorway) $150
Matt’s sharp blue-hued Standard edition “Superman” print is elegantly bordered with Art Deco stylings that harken to film elements while powerfully framing the central imagery as Superman comes to the rescue of his beloved Lois Lane, along with more than just a few ill placed citizens down below. Matt’s Variant “Superman” print is a heavy contrast piece with vintage overtones that gracefully counterpoints his Standard edition. The striking “Superman” foil editions perfectly compliment the Man of Steel’s thematic and creates an arresting print with the foil substrate heavily revealing itself in various areas of DHM’s most select edition.
“Superman” Variant Edition of 50 $100
“Superman” Select Foil Edition of 10 (based on Variant edition colorway) $150
