mablesyrup 's review for:

Superman: Red Son by Mark Millar
4.0

4.5

I was so close to giving it 5 stars but since I’m using this collective edition to keep track and the second Volume was nothing but boring I will leave it as 4.5.

Very interesting take on the Superman mythos, I’ve never read an Elseworlds story but I am obsessed with reading more of them now!

However the comic is only saved by a solid and compelling plot and great artwork during the first two volumes. I understand that this is basically a reimagining of the heroes but I felt nothing for none of them; no hate, compassion, fondness, nothing! But the third volume, ugh! That’s a whole different story, what a great conclusion! And that twist at the end? Spectacular! Never saw it coming
