Title: Comic Books Don't Get Anymore "Super" Than This
Product review: Yes, it is an "Elseworlds"-type story set in an alternate universe (a non-superpowered "real world" like our own...). And yes, it doesn't star the "Man of Steel" that we're all familiar with, but another boy named Clark Kent. After reading the re-imagining of Superman's origin in Mark Waid's "Birthright," I was expecting a similar "Superboy"-type story here. Not the case, though--what we have is simply the best Superman tale ever told. This is Superman's equivalent to "The Dark Knight Returns." The artwork is amazing, and the story itself is at turns exciting, sad, and wonderful. One of the top ten comic books ever produced, in my opinion.
