Today in Comics History, December 19, 1777: Superman cheerfully leaves the Continental Army to die in the winter snow

I will never not make fun of the infamous Limited Collectors' Edition #C-47, which promised us this:


cover of Limited Collectors' Edition #C-47 [Superman Salutes the Bicentennial] (DC, August 1976); pencils and inks by Fred Ray, colors by Sol Harrison
...but gave us this: sixty oversized pages of Tomahawk reprints superficially introduced by Superman.


from Limited Collectors' Edition #C-47 (DC, August 1976); Superman figures pencilled and inked by Curt Swan; Tomahawk pencils and inks by Fred Ray
What's the matter, Superman, too lazy to fly back into time and show us your adventures in 1776?

Anyway, here's what happened...Today in Comics History!
