Classic Superman is back!

Format: Paperback

This is classic Superman through and through. Venditti has an understanding of the character that will be refreshing for longtime Superman fans—especially those tired of the evil or edgy Superman tropes that have been overdone in recent years. He gets why Superman is a compelling character BECAUSE he is an overpowered boy scout—not in spite of it. This is good wholesome fun for everyone without any sort of targeted political commentary (rare in today’s comic scene). The stories are mostly self-contained with some overarching themes and some running jokes that I really enjoyed. Please give this man a chance to write Superman’s main series and turn that ship around. Venditti knows what he’s doing.

Super great

Format: Kindle

The best thing about this series is , it's mostly single issue stories. Another good thing is there's no use of the subplots from the ongoing Superman comics to distract from the stories. The stories themself are very well told, with an emphasis on what makes Superman a hero. The art by Paul Pelletier is great, as always.
