I really enjoyed this read. I loved the tone and the sci-fi elements. I think the semi absurdist elements fit really well in a fast-paced story about a guy in tights, and overall, I felt it was a really great representation of Superman.
I personally think Superman is best executed when he's slightly older and almost dad-like. A world shattering foe is the equivalent of kids throwing sand at a tank. He rarely gets angry, but he does get disappointed in the failings of those he protects. I think this characterisation works perfectly when comparing the characterisation of Lex Luthor.
Great art, I'll definitely be reading more Frank Quitley.
What an iconic run for such an easy price point. Usually, when I go to the book store, the graphic novels and manga cost more than the novels I buy; but with the dc compacts, it was honestly the other way around.
What DC Compact should I get next?
