| 1. All Star Superman, Vol. 1 | 
|
By: Grant Morrison
Publisher: DC Comics
September 02, 2008
All-Star Superman Volume One takes place in a re-conceived DC universe that looks back in some ways (Lois Lane doesn't know that Clark Kent is Superman) and forward in others (Jimmy Olsen is now a super-cool media personality), with the end result being a lot of fun. This initial volume of the ongoing series tells a good little story (well, stories, actually), combining hard science fiction with an... more

| 2. Superman: Last Son | 
|
By: Geoff Johns
Publisher: DC Comics
June 16, 2009
I love Geoff Jones, I love Dick Donner, and I certainly love Superman. I had high expectations on this comic, but I can't help but think that this is overly an incomplete comic.
The art is amazing!. They focus on the background more that the actual characters, making this something really fun to watch. The story is good also; leave you with some taste of Superman: The Movie and... more

| 3. Superman: Brainiac |
|
By: Geoff Johns
Publisher: DC Comics
March 09, 2010
What the other reviewers don't mention, for some reason, is that several points of the story are an homage to an earlier era of Supe's history, namely the 70s and early 80s. The first close-up of Lois Lane marks her as a dead ringer for Margaret Kidder from the first two superman movies. She's even served the "freshly squeezed orange juice" she keeps going on about in those movies.
Another... more

| 5. Superman: Red Son (Deluxe Edition) |
|
By: Mark Millar
Publisher: DC Comics
November 17, 2009
One reviewer argues that the premise--the boy from Krypton landing in the USSR as opposed the U.S.--had the potential to be a brilliant meditation on the genealogy of morals and right and wrong. He deems it a dud, and I must strongly disagree. While the writing may not push the premise to its fullest potential, is is nonetheless a really thougtful "what if" narrative, that does a good job of thinking... more

| 7. Superman: Birthright |
|
By: Mark Waid
Publisher: DC Comics
October 01, 2005
Superman Birthright is a great book. If you're like I was and look at the graphic novel section of the local book store with a feeling of intimidation, then this book should help break the ice. It plays out very much like a superhero origin film, taking us from Kal-El's arrival on Earth through his adulthood as Clark Kent, where we see him decide to become Superman. It's overall a well paced and enjoyable... more

| 9. Death of Superman |
|
By: Dan Jurgens
Publisher: Dc Comics
January 01, 1993
In 1992 DC Comics killed off the superhero who brought comic books to their glory days. In a similar fashion, the death of Superman brought thousands upon thousands of new readers to the genre since Superman had become an American cultural icon. While short lived, this collection of comics represents a turning point in the comic industry, where no superhero was safe any longer. Shortly thereafter... more

By: Dan Jurgens, Roger Stern, Jerry Ordway
By: Dan Jurgens
Publisher: DC Comics
September 12, 2007
I am a fan of this epic story, but DC definitely goes cheap with their omnibus collections (look at Starman). I would expect something on par with Marvel's Omnibus collections, which offers up great paper quality and the stories in their entirety, but for some reason DC continues to go cheap as another costumer said. Even Marvel larger collections which run 20 bux can collect about 12 or more issues... more
