Upper Deck Brings 'The Death of Superman' to e-Pack in Fleer Throwbacks Release
Posted on July 22, 2026 by Neil Cole
Collectors and Superman fans can once again experience one of the most influential storylines in comic book history as Upper Deck launches its Fleer Throwbacks 1992-93 DC Edition trading card set on its e-Pack platform. Drawing inspiration from the classic 1992 Fleer Baseball card design, the digital-first release celebrates some of DC's defining stories of the early 1990s, with a particular spotlight on The Death of Superman.
The collection features a dedicated insert series honoring the landmark Superman storyline that captivated readers worldwide more than three decades ago. Cards highlight pivotal characters from the saga, including Superman, Lois Lane, Superboy, Steel, the Eradicator, Cyborg Superman and Doomsday, pairing memorable comic artwork with dramatic visual effects designed to evoke the emotional impact of the celebrated crossover event.
Beyond its Superman focus, the set revisits other defining DC events from the era, including Knightfall and Eclipso: The Darkness Within. Collectors can pursue a fractional 30-card base set, multiple tiers of serial-numbered parallel cards, original sketch cards from contributing artists and achievement rewards for completing designated collections. Packs contain three cards each, with 15 packs per box and an average of one serial-numbered card per box. Purchases made through Upper Deck e-Pack can be transferred to linked COMC accounts or redeemed for physical fulfillment where eligible.
The release continues Upper Deck's growing emphasis on blending nostalgia with modern digital collecting, giving longtime comic readers and a new generation of fans an opportunity to revisit one of Superman's most enduring moments through a contemporary trading card experience. With The Death of Superman remaining one of the most recognizable comic book events ever published, the new Fleer Throwbacks edition serves as both a tribute to the original storyline and a celebration of its lasting influence on DC Comics and the collectibles hobby.
The Fleer Throwbacks 1992-93 DC Edition is available exclusively through Upper Deck's digital e-Pack platform. Collectors can purchase packs, open them instantly, trade with other users and transfer eligible cards for physical fulfillment by visiting UpperDeckePack.com.
