NOT WORTH CONSUMING
Maybe it’s because I’ve read no less
than 3 of these stories in other anthologies. Maybe it’s because Clark Kent
works for a TV station and not the Daily Planet. Maybe it’s because Superman
eats kryptonite for breakfast and doesn’t get sick from it anymore. OR maybe
it’s because Superman in the 70’s sucks.
Probably, it’s a lot of all of these
reasons. By far, this is the worst volume of “Superman in the (insert decade
here)” series. Art was wrong, stories were far-fetched, and even the Earth 2
Superman story was weak (though actually the best story in the book). Don’t
waste your time on this one folks. Like how many of our parents like to forget
that the seventies ever happened, take their advice and forget that DC made
this volume.
Not worth consuming, which is really
sad, cause I like the 70’s and really hate to prove my parents right (thankfully
that’s hardly ever)!Oh, and PS…The cover is wrong, this multiple style a ’la
Andy Warhol was considered to have lived out its 15 minutes of fame by 1968 and
is more suited to grace the 60’s volume. Lois Lane in an afro or Jack Kirby’s
Superman would have been more suited. (and yes both things happened in the
70’s)
