Superman: Secret Origin

Good story and artwork. I rather have seen the artist interpretation of Superman rather than basing him on Christopher Reeve image ( not that I don't like Christopher Reeve but I like him in live action) it a great retelling story take a look and enjoy!

This was such a fun comic book to read. I really the idea of Superman starting off as Superboy and, in typical teenage fashion, thinking of his suit as silly and embarrassing. The Legion of Super-Heroes were an unexpected but interesting twist and I loved the futuristic setting along with the fresh new characters that came from the future. Lex Luthor is, of course, as messed up as ever in this comic and I love every bit of it from feeding the winner of his "giveaway" donuts with radiation to replacing John Corben's body with cybernetics and his heart with Kryptonite just to take down Superman. This version of Lois, like most iterations, really is amazing and gives the Daily Planet some personality, especially since Clark has to keep a low profile to conceal his identity. This book was a nice take to Superman's origin story and I would love to give it another read.

I really liked the art. Superman looked like Christopher Reeves which is the Superman I grew up with. The story was good as well but I have read the Superman origin story many times even though this had a twist to it. I definitely recommend this book.
