If I had to summarize this story arc in a single word, that word would be: lolwhat.
Definitely whenever you are doing a serious story like an AU of the 2000 presidential election, you should be sure to include an interlude where Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen (things have been published under that title this century? Seriously?) is plagued by Bizarro Superman #1 (how many of them are there, FFS?). That is totally tonally appropriate and not at all WTF.
Every artist who contributed to this arc has their own completely bizarre and off-the-wall way of drawing faces, although of course none of them can hold a candle to the horrors perpetuated by Rob Liefeld under the names Superman and Aquaman.
Superman isn't very good at Christmas shopping, BTW.
