justabookholic 's review for:
Superman: Red Son (New Edition)
by Mark Millar
2.5 stars
The execution could have been better, the concept and premise had so much promise but in the end it focused on the aspects of the Superman mentality; moral superiority and blind views on how the world should be. The fact that the story went off the rails after the introduction of wonder woman did not help things. No real development or character depth was shown through the plot, nothing really changed. And perhaps the fact that this rings true in real life as well as this comic book is why I was so disappointed. Underwhelming; Wonder Woman and Batman were also robbed of any personality and sense so that was a disaster to read. Good concept, bad execution.
