Guice and writer Walt Simonson co-created the Ahab character in "Fantastic Four Annual" #23 (1990). In 1991, Guice took over penciling "Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.", before moving back to DC. Guice drew "Action Comics" #676–711 (April 1992–July 1995) and worked with writers Roger Stern and David Michelinie. During this run, Guice and Stern (along with editor Mike Carlin, Dan Jurgens, Louise Simonson and others) were the architects of "The Death of Superman" storyline, in which Superman died and was resurrected. Stern and Guice incorporated the Eradicator character into the "Reign of the Supermen" story arc beginning in "The Adventures of Superman" #500 (June 1993). Spinning out of that event, Stern and Guice collaborated on a "Supergirl" miniseries.
