Death and Return of Superman
-
Version
1.0
The Death and Return of Superman is a beat 'em up
video game based on the Death of Superman storyline.
It features many characters from the comics, including
Superman himself, Superboy, The Man of Steel, The Man
of Tomorrow, The Last Son of Krypton, and Doomsday.
All of the five Supermen are playable characters at
some point.
The gameplay is the standard "beat 'em up" type, where
the player controls a character that can move in all
directions. A set number of foes will enter the screen
and only after they are defeated can the character
continue on the quest. Although different in
appearance, each character has the same basic
abilities: standard melee attacks (punches), grappling
attacks (get close enough to character and attack),
throws (holding the forward key and attacking), grab
and throw upward (holding the "up" key and attacking),
grab and throw backward (holding the "back" key and
attacking), or grab and pummel (hold the "down" key
and attack), a projectile attack, and an "ultimate"
