The art is awesome. I haven't read it.

One of my favorite Superman comics was DOS.

Although not technically a Superman comic, Kingdom Come is my favourite mini series featuring him but all star Superman has to be my favourite, I just wish it was longer.

I liked "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow"

Kingdom Come and Whatever happened to the Man of Tomorrow are among my favorite Superman stories as well.

I also liked the Elseworlds story where Superman lands on Gotham instead of Kansas. Forgot its name.

Speeding Bullets.

I really liked Godfall as well. That was the last time I remember any comic having me so swept up in trying to figure out how it was going to end.

Superman and Batman: Supergirl

Also drawn by Michael Turner, pretty good comic. Loved Kingdom Come and Identity Crisis as well.

Awesome, awesome read.

Individually, Superman 217 is probably my all time favourite Superman comic... i'd gone off Superman, and i just happened to pick this up, and fell right back in love with the character... it was also the first time i saw ed benes' art, which is a big part of it...

All Star Superman will be among the classics.

Superman 775 is one of the best single issues. What's so Funny About Truth Justice and the American way?

*coughactioncough*

yeah, all-star superman is probably my favorite superman series. actually, among my all time favorites. it has absolutely everything i enjoy in a comic.

then titles such as kingdom come, godfall, DoS, WHTTMOT, red son, etc.

Hands down, easy winner, All Star Superman.

Definitely one of the best single issues.

Godfall is really good but, For Tomorrow and Redson are still my favorites.

one where he dies

All Star Superman, i didnt liek it at first but god i grows on you, brillaint comic

godfall is pretty good too

for tommorow whatever happened to the man of tommorow

Final Crisis: Superman Beyond (both issues)

Not necessarily newbie friendly, but my god is it a good comic...

Morrison does seem to get Superman. Not many writers can really claim that.

As for my pick: Action #775 or All Star Superman #6.

Best Series:

All Star Superman
Kingdom Come
Superman Beyond
Godfall

On another note, why do so many people think Action Comics #775 was so good? I mean, the last few pages were fun, but I didn't think it was that great as a whole. *shrug*

Action Comics #775 is easily one of the greatest comics ever written ! If you want a quick synopsis about the the LEGEND that is Superman then read this. Also probably Joe Kelly s best work. A less than subtle jibe at everything from Watchmen, to Ellis's Authority. Its basically a very metaphoric middle finger at the ninety's generation of comics. Plus Superman performs a heat vision lobotomy for the 1st time. What else could you ask for in a comic ?

A great pay off goes a long way. FC would have gannered a better overall review with a stronger finish than we got, as it is it was good up to the last three issues, BEYOND 2 being the exception but it never really supported the rest of FC either.

people are actually saying that Superman Beyond is an integral part of FC, almost going as far to say that it's as important to the story as the central issues.

I think someone said Superman Beyond was FC 4 and 7, with FC 4/5 and 7 becoming 5 and 8.

Other then that, I think you could go without reading 'Superman Beyond,' and still follow what's happening in FC. Just MO.

Death of Superman
Up, Up and Away
All-Star Superman
Superman Beyond
Superman Forever

...Those are some of my favorites, in no particular order. I didn't really like Godfall that much, even though I loved Turner's artwork. "Superman: The Dark Side" receives an honorable mention from me.

I saw Morrison's reading guide but based on how the issues were released. Beyond came out of left field. I liked Beyond but I couldn't help but feel it should have been a major story for another event.

that's it entirely actually. mandrakk is painted as the big bad, and wihout reading SB, people would wonder what the hell he was doing in issue 7 and who he was. not that it would help an almost pointless appearence, though...

i honestly dunno. i'd have to read it again...

I got the jist of it the first time. But when I read it through a second time, any confusions I had were pretty much dispelled and I liked it even more.



And more on topic...when I'm in a sort of 'blah,' melodramatic mood, I like to read AC 850 and Supes v1 Annual 11 (For the Man Who Has Everything.)
