Gostei bastante de conhecer a origem do Super-Homem, os seus poderes e as suas motivações, pela visão do John Byrne. Nunca foi dos meus super-heróis favoritos, mas, depois de ler este volume, fiquei com outra opinião. Cheguei ao final desta leitura muito satisfeita e diverti-me imenso!

Did a quick reread --- it's an interesting artifact as the first Superman reboot, but suffers from Byrne's episodic writing style and loose inks from Giordano. (Plus, do we need three panels to explain how Clark shaves?)

Not sophisticated for modern tastes, but a fun retro to a lot of the classic Superman stories. A lot of the inner monologuing and some of the jokes are pretty corny and lack depth, but still enjoyable. Looking forward to more contemporary Superman stories, hopefully they're more like Red Son.

Byrne's Superman is the best I've ever read.
