The Return of Superman by Dan Jurgens
3.0
Another "Meh".
I first came across the death and return of Superman in the novel form and maintain that it is superior to the comic version. I'll maintain that this is true now that I've read the comic versions.
The novelization includes some back story and explanations for things that would, in comic form, be marked with an asterisk and a reference to a certain issue of a series. For someone interested in a complete version of this story without referring to various others, the novelization is clearly the way to go.
Some parts of the story are included in the novelization where they don't appear in the comic at all. Of particular note is the scene where Dr. Hamilton explains why Superman appeared "dead".
The book was better.
