The greatest Superman story ever written.
Grant Morrison's writing and Frank Quietly's art combines to show off the comic book medium at its finest.
“It's fine, the art is beautiful but the stories being told didn't really hook me - DNF 150/328 - 2.5”
This is honestly my first actual Superman story I've read (at the recommendation of a friend) and I think that's why it didn't impact me as much as most other people - it feels like something whose requirement is having any connection to this character, and I just... Don't.
That being said - it's weird! And I like weird. It definitely hammers home who Superman is, and I dig that character a lot based on this. And there's a ton of cool moments that, again, would land harder if I had more emotional context but nonetheless are very good on paper.
If nothing else, it's made me interested to read more (good, standalone) Superman stories!
