This era of Superman has a pretty notorious rep。 I hadn't read it since it dropped the first time and I really couldn't remember。 This omnibus comprises the first 18 issues plus an annual and a #0。 The art is primarily by Rags Morales。 Right away were are off to a weird start。 As I recall the lead up to the New 52 was promoting a streamlined, back-to-basics kind of take on DC Comics。 If that was really the goal, who in the world thought Grant Morrison was the one?

I do have to admit the first 5 or so issues where we have t-shirt Superman doing some street level stuff, I was a pretty in。 But then that vanishes and we go on the typical trippy, Quaalude-fueled ride that is a Grant Morrison story。 And there's no transition。 It's just suddenly aliens and demons and time travel and Mxyzptlk。 I don't get it。 Then there's the art。 I guess that's a place where I would have gone with a classic, shiny, spit-curled kind of vibe。 Instead it feels very loose and inconsistent。 Superman is unrecognizable from panel to panel。 It's weird and I found it to be very unpleasant。 What's more, nothing from this run made any lasting impact on the character。 This reread didn't change my opinion, but it was at least interesting to revisit。 I'm covering my return to New 52 Superman over on Comic Book Coffee Break: https://smallvillechronicle。blogspot。。。。 。。。more
