Superman: Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?
by Alan Moore
I wanted to like this. Not because I'm a Alan Moore fan. I believe he's kind of a dicky dick face (YES! That's my words) But I enjoyed some of his previous work, especially Watchmen. This is the end of a era. A What If the original Superman had to have a send off. Well we make it darker. People need to die. Lex needs to have a plan. Braniac needs to try and conquer the world. And Superman must DIE! Before his death...later...yeah...
What I liked: Some of the cheesy one liners made me smile. I also enjoyed seeing how vastly different superman is now than what he was.
What I didn't like: How they tried to Dark Knight Superman. So we have people like Lana and Pete getting murdered. Then Krytoman (So dumb) kills our favorite puppy of all time. Everyone just dies and it's odd. The fights look horrible and the art isn't to my liking. Sorry old cartoony looking superhero comics are hard for me to enjoy tbh. Also the swamp thing story sucked. I never thought Moore did very good on Swamp thing tbh and liked him done by different (and better writers).
Overall this is interesting to read because of it being so old and a change in status quo but overall it was hardly worth my time in the end. It's short though so it's not terrible just meh. Big old MEH!
