BONUS REVIEW by "Doc" Schaefer
 See! This is what happens if you stop rebooting comics and numbering systems! The best thing about this book is that it is exactly what it should be. A celebration of all things Superman. His friends, his foes, his family, his ideals all get a brief page of two of representation here. And with the who's who of talent listed on the inside cover, it's a smorgasborg of the talent DC has had file through their ranks. I do however want to point out two things that bothered me. First, is that the alternate covers representing the various time periods do not show Superman in the outfit he wore during that time. If I buy the 1930's cover, I want the strappy boots. And second, with all this talent on display, can't we find work for all these talented people? I give it 10 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
