Well Done audio movie This is a well done audio presentation with excellent production values and superb voice acting (the only problem I had was with Supermans voice but that was a minor issue). I enjoy relistening to this ever so often, it is really superb.
Best Superman on cd I have heard since Bud Collyer It follows the story pretty well. The abridgement didn't hurt the story. The author did a good job.
I waited a long time for this to be printed on CDs Worth the wait. The dramatization isn't the best of the best, but still has re-listenability.
We need more comic related audio books!! I though that this was a pretty cool audio book myself. I had heard that it wasn't very good but I though it was. It did have the kind of cheesy drama effects in their voices at times, but that is to be expected with any audio book.I like to read the novel books based on comic characters so I do my best to get every one there is.Now I have really gotten into the audio books about them because I can listen to them in the car. This CD pretty much follow the "Death and life of superman" novel by Roger Stern. I have read the book and really liked it. I was confused a little in some parts but after listening to this CD I understand it perfectly. I would recommend this to any comic book fan. I would also love to see more comic audio CD's very soon.
Who says comics are just a visual medium? In the tradition of the Mercury Radio Theater and radio masters like Stan Freeberg and Douglas Adams, this CD collection proves that anything visual mediums can do, radio can do even better.
Excellent talent, flawless editing, magnificient sound effects and complete commitment to the story all come together to make this an outstanding audio experience.
Though not a Superman fan myself, after listening to the BBC and Warner Brothers adaptations of Knightfall, I knew I had to hear this as well and I'm glad I did.
