The massive 11-issue crossover among four different series (Superman, Superman: The Man of Steel, Action Comics, and Justice League of America) introduces an unstoppable alien named Doomsday who creates a path of destruction on his way to the heart of Metropolis and whom Superman must stop at any cost. It's of interest as a milestone of the Superman mythos (though of course the outcome didn't last), but casual fans might be underwhelmed by the unfamiliar villain and the unfamiliar Justice League (with Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, and other minor heroes rather than the traditional lineup), the drawn-out story (by Dan Jurgens, Jerry Ordway, Louise Simonson, and Roger Stern), and the ordinary art (by Jurgens, Jon Bogadanove, Tom Grummett, and Jackson Guice). --David Horiuchi Product Description: The bestselling edition that tells the staggering story of Superman's demise has been one of DC's best sellers since its release in January, 1992. THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN, the opening volume of the saga of Superman's death and rebirth, introduced the unstoppable death dealer known as Doomsday. Graphic novel format. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Great ActionThere are comics that make have revolutionary writing and make you think (this is not it) and then there are really exciting, thrilling, non-stop action comics (this is it!) so if you enjoy the latter you will enjoy this book. There are some people who complain about the politics that concern the making of this book and to that, who cares, it's just a fictious story. True, it is controversial to kill of the Man of Steel but the actual fight between Superman and Doomsday literally spans several ... Read More Rating: - Essential, but room for improvementSuperman fans are basically required to pick this up, as this story arc set the DC universe on its head. To cut it short, a mysterious creature named Doomsday appears, creates a path of destruction across the country (taking out several Justice League members along the way) before fighting Superman in a climactic battle at the steps of the Daily Planet, where both kill each other. The art is pretty good overall, but that's an average - the final installment is masterfully done, but some ...

The book has lost it's luster as I got a little older, however it is still a must read for any Superman fan. Rating: - A death without dignity or respectIt's taken a long time for comics to get where they are today. At the present, comics are widely regarded as a serious art form, although the medium still has a long way to go before everyone buys that. It's true, though. Unfortunately, when most people think of comics, they think of the original comics from the '40s, '50s, and '60s, back when Batman and Robin were fighting "Blockbuster," a villain who could kill Batman with his flashlight, or when Lois Lane could only watch helplessly as Superman ... Read More Rating: - Doomsday Wrecks HavocFrom the very beginning, Doomsday (the bad guy) has the only intent of going berserk, and beating up people who gets in his way. Justice League battles him, but gets beaten. Why is this Doomsday so powerful, we don't get to know. Superman battles him, and as we all know ends up losing the fight. The whole book is nothing but fighting, Justice League and Superman fighting Doomsday. There's no rest. I didn't follow the Superman books when this storyline was written, so I don't know why Superman ultimately ... Read More
