This was a great read. I loved reading about the differences there were in this time line. I thought it was a fun novel and will reread it.

Mark Miller continues to prove how resoundingly impactful comics can be when you set it upon yourself to deliver a different tale with a definitive beginning and end -- spearheading political commentary, Red Son really drives forth this unique world I never wanted to have a finale. But as this was my first time going through it, I know this will be one of a few stories I will find myself returning to.

Interesting idea, but politically confused, and for a story that's so political that's a pretty major flaw. I did like the ending though, that was a fun little twist!

4.5 stars. A great Superman story with a satisfying conclusion. I would have made one change to it though--having the very last scene take place in Smallville. Definitely worth a read, the type of story that proves the worth of Alternate Universe storylines.

This book was probably the best graphic novel/comic book I’ve read so far. It had a fast set of characters – many of which I want expecting – and thought out story lines that need for an entertaining read throughout. There were a couple twins that were easy to see, but they didn’t attract too much from the story. Would recommend.

Not bad. Love the premise: What if Superbaby's rocket had landed on a collective farm in THE SOVIET UNION. Of course Wonder Woman follows suit in seeing the upside of Communism, which make sense when you think about the vibe on Paradise Island. Luv both her and his (continually evolving) uniforms.

The art is okay. The character design is mostly good. The plot is uneven between the three original issues. Still, it's fun.

Thought it was a well contained story with a still even better ending to Luthor as a fully fleshed villain/opponent.

Me ha gustado bastante. La premisa es original y la vuelta de tuerca de un héroe tan conocido me ha llamado la atención. Como se suele decir, el camino al infierno está empedrado de buenas intenciones...

Me ha parecido interesante sin ser el género que más me guste, que de hecho, no lo es.
