Absolute All-Star Superman by Grant Morrison
3.0
At 15 I decided it was Batman and only Batman for me.
You’re pretty daft at 15, though, aren’t you?
Anyway, I’ve loved all of Grant Morrison’s work so thought it was time to dip my toe in Superman’s waters ( filthy ). And this was a bloody strong introduction.
Moves at a lightning fast pace which felt quite jarring, but it also does a great job of firing lots of concepts and ideas at you without making it seem overwhelming. It’s just a mad world if you’re Superman. Never catches any Zs.
Particularly enjoyed their presentation of Kent as a fumbling and clumsy character. Schwarzenegger would have had something to say.
It’s good stuff.
