I think that's slightly different from the Greatest Superman Stories Ever Told HC from about 15 years ago. Besides Action #775 (WTF? Maybe it was good, but I'm certain there are other stories from the past 17 years that deserved to be there more than this one), there's Superman first series #400, Man of Steel #1 (the original HC had MoS #6) and Superman second series #18 ("Return to Krypton" by Byrne and Mignola, instead of Superman #2, the one where Lex finds out the secret identity and doesn't believe it). Anything else?
I think the only one there I haven't read is #400. Anyone read it? Is it worth getting the trade?

I have no idea about the Legion or Legion trades but I'm guessing you're completely wrong as usual.
