I find Superman to be most interesting when he's dealing with the general populace. A god standing amongst men.
-
I got this cuz of the watercolor variant, and it's a good book. Lots involved in overcoming Superman and all his powers.

I picked this book up because it was on my pull list, and it’s not right to leave my store hanging. But I promptly cancelled my Bendis stuff due to the one-two punch of Man of Steel and Superman #1. I expected this book...

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this issue. Typically, I don't enjoy small-time stories as much as the big, cosmic battles. So Superman I am enjoying quite a bit. This series has a Batman feel to it...

I wasn't able to find the article with a quick search, but I want to say when him coming to DC was first announced it was pointed out that he actually wanted to do Superman as he had a bunch of story idea's for him. I'm sure he wants to write Batman like everyone else but is where he wants to be at the moment.

The art was great but something about the writing wasn't clicking with me like the rest of Bendis' Superman has. Wish I could pinpoint what' didn't work.
Great issue. I am liking what Bendis is doing with Superman.
Some of the best art I've seen from Gleason. And he did his own inks... maybe that's the difference.
The art is fantastic. Great stuff. I do think him doing his own inks is a big difference.
ehhhh
So this will continue in Superman or Action Comics?
Action Comics will have one story line and Superman another. But both will be building the overall story.
Thanks
No prob! I'll pull both of them as they're doing good.
Good Issue. Had to laugh at Bendis being in the page of Bald guys.
He's superman maybe he is ambidextrous.
Ha ha ha. I made a similar comment about Wonder Woman a while back. I'm sure it has something to do with the artist.
PS - It was the mouse at his desk btw
So...why doesn't Supes know Lois is on Earth. Surely he can hear her heartbeat?
Did you read Man Of Steel? Lois is not on earth.
The ending of the issue would seem otherwise?
I would need to re red it... But I thought the 6 issue miniseries set this up. And in the series we learn Lois and Jon have left the planet.
@Taren, at the end of this issue, she's seen on her laptop in an apartment complex detailing her new biography, so it's assumed she's back on Earth.
Right... I remember now. Not sure. We shall see.
Love the introduction of Red Cloud. Love that Lois is back and Clark doesn't realize it yet. This is just building up to be such a great arc.
