Really? Did they decide to stop at that? Originally Grant was going to do 12, then I thought the intent was to have another writer and artist jump on for 12, and tell a Superman story they wanted to tell, connected or not. Basically free-of-continuity tales of Superman. Same for Bats and the other All Stars they planned on doing?
Yeah, what I meant was both Morrison and Quietly have stated they will be leaving after issue 12...

I personally hope the series stops there, otherwise the superior artwork and storytelling will change, (for the worse more than likely). 🙁

They just need to quit while they're ahead, or they will risk ruining this awesome character IMO.

After reading this I think Superman wins. This is such a shitty incarnation!

Why?

Because he's powerful, and hard to beat? 😕

All Star Supes has Matter Manipulation and telepathy?Or is Board walker being Board walker...ermmnone

I don't like characters that are night invincible and uni-dimensional, the one thing they can make to transform Superman in a worse character is making him more and more powerful.

Meh,

If you actually read the series before you judged it, you would know it's one of the best out there. 😬

Well, he gets more and more powerful all the time. Even regular Supes. He gets new powers and amps in power by simply being under the sun longer. I'm not talking issue to issue, but more year to year... Compare current Superman to late 80's or early 90's Superman to see the effects dramatically. Or compare to "Leap tall buildings, faster than a speeding bullet" Earth 2 Superan, to how we saw him in Crisis on Infinite Earths or Infinite Crisis.
It's part of the character, has been since he was created.

Correct, it's one of the best books out there right now. It's like a breath of fresh to me. Not a lot of thinking, but a lot of entertainment, good stories, and good art.

90% of what I say concerning DC is true.

You can ask Galan, Juanti, or Avy to verify if you doubt.

Check the All Star Superman respect thread.
Given that it's a handful of issues, the thread isn't too long.

😮

Thanks to Galan for our All Star Supes respect thread. 🤘

A/S is only getting a 12 issue series.

Maybe DC isn't liking what they see in having All-Star versions. Batman is certainly an embarrassment. They haven't been going as radical as Ultimate Marvel.

And people make a sort of rejoice thread every time an issue of Ultimates comes out.

The sales of each All Star comic are still pretty staggering, before it's hiatus, check out BM&RAS's numbers, alongside Superman. They should definately be liking that.

I gotta admit I enjoy a lot of the ultimate series. Ultimate Spiderman has been a consistently great series. The ultimates have great stories also ( event though it seems that the ultimates and All Star Batman are in a contest to see who can delay their book the longest).

thanos does do doesnt he? get more powers all the time.

Im happy to hear someone else call this Childish writing. It makes me think of 2 kids arguing on a playground. "Yeah well my hero can lift a billion pounds!" "Oh yeah, well mine can lift.... 100 quintillon pounds!"
"Oh yeah! Well mine can do twice that... with 1 hand!". Seriously, how do you write that? While we are at it, lets take away his only known weaknesses, make him a genius (because knowledge is really a power someone can just gain overnight) and lets have him defy logic by playing marbles with planets. All he needs is telepathy and ninja training.
