Especially since they are including Superman 4, they should give you a discount for including that.
Superman: The Movie
At the heart of this Academy Award®-winning*, fan-favorite box-office smash (and for three sequels) is Christopher Reeve’s intelligent, affectionate portrayal of a most human Man of Steel. Reeve, Marlon Brando (Jor-El), Gene Hackman (Lex Luthor) and Margot Kidder (Lois Lane) give performances that fuel the film’s aura of legend. Watching Superman isn’t just like being a kid again. It’s better.
Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut
Director Richard Donner began shooting Superman II while concurrently filming Superman: The Movie, though the theatrical version of the film was ultimately directed by Richard Lester. In 2006, Donner’s original unique vision was released for the first time. Jor-El (Marlon Brando in footage cut from the theatrical version) appears in key scenes that amplify Superman lore and deepen the relationship between father and son. Lois Lane plots more schemes to unmask Clark Kent as Superman. With so many changes, large and small, including a different beginning and resolution, this version is an eye-opening alternate experience.
Superman II: Theatrical Cut
Unwittingly released from Phantom Zone imprisonment, three superpowered Planet Krypton criminals (Terence Stamp, Sarah Douglas and Jack O’Halloran) plan to enslave Earth – just when Superman (Christopher Reeve) decides to show a more romantic side to Lois Lane (Margot Kidder). Gene Hackman also returns as Lex Luthor in this sequel that features a top supporting cast, witty Richard Lester direction, and visuals that astound and delight.
Superman III:
Meet Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), a naive computer-programming natural. For him a keyboard is a weapon – and, as a result, Superman faces the microelectronic menace of his life. Christopher Reeve reprises his signature role, deepening his character’s human side as Clark Kent sees Lana Lang (Annette O’Toole) at a Smallville High class reunion. And when the Man of Steel becomes his own worst enemy after exposure to Kryptonite, Reeve pulls off both roles with dazzling skill. Relive Superman III with all its heart, heroism and high-flying humor.
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace
Christopher Reeve not only dons the title hero’s cape for the fourth time but also helped develop the movie’s provocative theme: nuclear disarmament. To make the world safe for nuclear arms merchants, Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) creates a new being to challenge the Man of Steel: the radiation-charged Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow). The two foes clash in an explosive extravaganza that sees Superman save the Statue ofLiberty, plug the volcanic eruption of Mount Etna and rebuild the demolished Great Wall of China.

Works out to around £26 per steelbook. But then obviously you have the collectors tin case they come housed in and the comic/booklets, so the price actually isn't bad at all IMO.
so why cant warner release that kind of steelbooks for batman & batman returns :/
I'm expecting them to at some point. Might even be just around the corner, what with this Superman Collection announcement and the fact Keaton is reprising his role in Flash... would be perfect timing!
Id take the batman films like this with this kind of art. Better than those sh!tty blueprint artworks

Ahh I see. Still over priced though in my opinion. Might be a good pick up later when it drops in price though. I only want the superman 2 and dinner cut personally in 4K. 3 and 4 were pretty bad. Even 3 was worse than I remembered when last watched. Reeve himself though will always be superman to me. Like someone else said- anyone can play superman but reeve was superb as Clark too.
My problem the last film cold do with a complete special effects overhaul..... The fact that's not done is very disappointing. Yes it would be still be a crap film just be less crap that's all.
Note the collection SteelBook Box set is not a Zavvi Exclusive
