Note: With this issue, Editora Cinco in Colombia increases the price of its books from $100.00 to $120.00. This is the fourth and final increase overall, before the series is cancelled due to the outrageous price and low sales.  The first two price hikes had been for $10 each; the third increase was $40, and the final one was $20, making the cost of a single comic inaccessible to the regular public.

Superman makes a cameo in issue #77, and a guest appearance in issue #78. The Man of Steel does not appear in the final issue of his own title, #80.
