“Remember. You can do anything you set your mind to—as long as you believe in it with all your heart.” —Martha Kent, issue 1
this is such a gorgeous, gorgeous miniseries on being clark kent, superman. sales’ art and hansen’s coloring makes the whole world feel soft, even in its darkest moments. i love the way clark’s drawn here, specifically, because he is one of the biggest men in the crowd, in any crowd, but there’s such a gentleness to him that cannot be understated. there’s a sadness to him, too, that loeb really has a good grasp on. loeb’s clark is so deeply human, which makes him so deeply alone in his alienness. having each season narrated by different people that are important in his life—pa kent, lois lane, lex luthor, lana lang—is such a great move. to see clark, superman, the man, and the alien through different people’s eyes . . . UGH. incredible. loved this so much i hope i won’t burst into tears again when i eventually reread this and get to the whole “Pa. I’m scared” moment. truly had me on my knees.
