"Superman: The Greatest Stories Ever Told - Volume 2)"


WORTH CONSUMING!

Another great collection of Superman stories- not awesome, but great. The first appearance of Mr. Mxyzptlk, Luthor and Brainiac’s team-up, Luthor rejecting the idea that Clark Kent could be Superman, all great tales. Sadly, Superman’s return to Krypton which has been reprinted in other Superman anthologies no less than 3 previous times, and Superman’s resistance to Kryptonite (which appears in Superman in The 70’s), prevents 2 hardly ever stories from being published in this book. I would have like to seen Superman’s bout vs. Ali, the Greatest or one of Superman’s Showcase teaming with another superhero. That would have made this great. Still, worth consuming- although you might feel cheated having to read some stories over again if you’ve read other anthologies.
