Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.
Reading the notes in the Absolute version I didn't know the Superboy and Supergirl we saw with the Legion was Kon-El and Matrix Supergirl. I also love that Orion scene with him and Superman worked really well together.

Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.

Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.
Most Superman stories seem like he goes through the same conflict..

Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.
Superman can't save the whole world, he doesn't want to kill any bad guys blah blah then he becomes almost big brother type or he goes into hiding but the world needs him.. I dunno all seem the same to me but I still enjoy them

Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.
Isn't the whole Superman story, he can save the whole world but if he did, people wouldn't learn to help themselves. So he can't actually help too much.
Cause in Red Son, he completely saved Russia but Lex Luthor (of course) points out the fatal flaw in Superman doing that. Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

Re: Kingdom Come written by Mark Waid and painted by Alex Ross.
Reads like a fan-service.
I really didn't see anything to get all excited about except if I was a pedantic "I know everything about DCU history" type person, in which case I'd enjoy the "spot the hero/villain" sequences of pages which pretty much make up the entire book. It doesn't help that I think Ross does awful sequentials... |
