Absolutely perfect 🥰 

So, Superman For All Seasons.

Told over four seasons, with each season from the point of view of a different character, starting with Spring (Jonathan Kent) before moving onto Summer (Lois Lane), Autumn (Lex Luthor, here portrayed more as a business man than as a crime lord) and finally Winter (Lana Lang), this is really all about Clark Kent's early days as The Man of Steel.

Not long ago, I also read [b:All Star Superman|7719640|Absolute All-Star Superman|Grant Morrison|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1374351837s/7719640.jpg|10465171], which (I believe) is also commonly considered one of the better Superman stories. Of the two, I have to say: I preferred this one. Less fantastical, with more of the background that all we (should) know, showing how Clark Kent came to be who he is (and with easier-to-follow art panels!)

So good. The pastor's speech at the ending of the "Winter" section makes me want to jump up and down and give high fives. Dude. We're all heroes. The illustrations are perfect, and the plot is captivating.

“Thanks, my mom made it for me”😃😃😃

Tim Sale is definitely my favorite artist right now, and his work in this collection is amazing. Paired with Loeb's writing results in the second best super man book I've ever read (will anything ever top Kingdom Come?).
