You know what else was a great story? "The Death of Superman", and look at how that turned out as an animated movie.

@Destroyer: Good find!

@thegreek I didn't like the art too much, there wasn't enough Superman action, Clark Kent was kinda hopeless, and some other stuff. But a lot people like it, so give it a try.

I love All Star Superman. Can't wait for the animated movie. It would be cool to see it as the next live action movie, but still cool news

You probably have to be a long-time Superman fan to like it.

O.K., DC! WTF is it with Superman?!? You do realize you have other characters, right? Like, thousands of them?
