All Star Superman #5 : CLASSIC!

Started by Black Adam2 pages

issue 5 was the first time reading All star supes..

I really enjoyed it.🙂

I was sort of avoiding it and not really sure If I should try it out since

1. I'm not as big of a Grant morrison Fan as everyone else seems to be.
2. Frank Quitely's art usually make me drop a comic(but surprisingly isn't so bad here)
3 I'm still new to comic Superman.

but it turned out a lot better then I expected it was going to be. I'll be sticking around for the next issue 🙂

also that was one of the best looking parasites I've ever seen.......

The art is what really did it for me in this issue. The writing was great, but i don't think anyone draws bumbling Clark like Quitely does.

Anyone know how many issue these two are supposed to go for?


Morrison/Quitely are doing 12 issues of Superman.

Miller/Lee are doing 15 issues of Batman between now and eternity.

One thing I like about the art in this book is that it is digitally inked/colored. I think it really goes well with Quitely's art.

I love the bit when Parasite Escapes. The art reminded me of the anime film Spirited Away, in which there is this Ghost/Demon thing that can't stop eating the food inside the bath house. The more he eats the hungrier he gets, eventually leading him to start eating the Bath house employees. I think Morisson has done a geat job of emulating the darkness of the scene. His depiction of Luthor was also great, although i think he could have done a better job of illustrating his gennius.

[i]I don't see the difference between this Clark and the other Clarks.

Because he slouches and wears baggy clothes to cover his muscles? The hell? [/B]

Quite typical, and negative responses from two of the most frequent posters on the former 'I Hate Superman' thread. 😄 😉
