Finally finished Red Son.

What did you think?

 

[Babillygunn]

I’m not a huge fan of the insinuation that Superman is heavy handed or fascist. I think it presented him as a bit dumbed down. But the story was incredible and to be honest I didn’t see the twist at the end. I might’ve liked it more had I not have read Injustice last year. The idea of Superman imposing his will on humanity in that story kind of erases any good will you have with the character. It was hard to ignore the parallels. Also the idea of Superman using brain manipulation/reprogramming was nothing short of terrifying and perhaps too much of a divergence for the character.

All that said, it was a terrific story and very engaging. I guess I struggle with elseworlds tales where what I perceive as core aspects of the character are not preserved

I can see where you're coming from. Apparently that twist at the end was suggested by Grant Morrison. I liked the idea that Superman was still trying to do the right thing - at least his twisted version of it - but in a monstrous way. Red Son is one of my favourites - but then so is Injustice (and I know you're not a huge fan of that)

That’s the Alex Ross Paul Dini collection right?

I have read most of those stories individually on digital format. I’m really wanting to get this in print and give it to my son. (Partially because he has a “comics library” in his room and has given me an “unlimited pass” lol)

Yes, that's the one. I'd never read any of the series before but Ross's and Dini's names on the spine were enough to get me to fork out my hard-earned cash! I'm going to give it a little write-up on the 'latest read' thread in the DC comics forum when I get a chance if you're interested. I'd like to see whether we agree on it!

Nice set-up with your son, btw!
