"Superman: The Man of Steel Annual #3"

WORTH CONSUMING!

This issue fits the Elseworlds mission statement to a t. “Where Familiar Characters are no longer familiar” In this reality, the Kryptonians are so unlike themselves that it’s a little disturbing. Jor-El and Co. being a bit like Stalin is like Vulcans being like Genghis Khan (ok- that’s what the Romulans are, but that’s beyond the point).

I liked this a lot better than Action Comics Annual 6, but I am not impressed with the Disney-like ending. So, it loses a star. Worth Consuming!
