Superman: For Tomorrow, Vol. 2 by Jim Lee, Brian Azzarello, Scott Williams
2.0

Ah man I really loved the first volume. Well, love is a strong word, but I found it very very interesting. This volume is a bit different. We are thrown into Superman's jounry into the "other" world. The one he created. Heavy on metaphors and trying to contrast hell/heaven and what we create/destroy.

What I liked: still loved all the stuff with the priest. Was kind of sad where it ended up not impacting the overall story but I did like that character. Also Wonder Woman/Batman parts were good/entertaining.

What I didn't like: The vanishing area was a bit over the top and silly for me. The final fight was drawn out and boring. The whole ending felt rushed and not well told. I understood it, but it didn't connect with me.

I have to go with a 2.5 or 2 with this one. It was a big letdown compared to volume 1 which I enjoyed a lot throughout. Owell, this story arc in total still solid and worth reading for a different Superman story.
