Book Review for A-Z Title Challenge: Superman: Man of Steel issue #1


Book: Superman: The Man of Steel issue #1 by Louise Simonson with illustrations by various artists

Edition: digital issue

Rating: 5 stars

Review:

Superman is having a rough time with trying to help with every emergency he can but also trying to track down who is behind several bomb attacks in Metropolis. The city is also experiencing financial troubles which have left a huge impact including at The Daily Planet.

Clark is also plagued with headaches and weird visions of Krypton, he's not sure what they mean but they are making it hard to concentrate. Even with Lois helping Clark track down the lead, they're getting no where with the bombing story. With all of this going on, Clark's parents arrive for a visit just when there is a new Kryptonian threat approaching.

Can Superman handle all these emergencies? Will he be able to save the day?

This story might be a little old but it's still a good read. Despite all the pressure building up Clark never stops trying to help. This first issue is not only well written but it's filled with nonstop action, drama, suspense and humor.
