The Paley Center will be having the premiere of All- Star Superman in February. If you haven't read the instant classic by Grant Morrison then head to a comic store or go to Amazon now. Probably one of the finest Superman mini-series in many years, The story explains why Superman is Superman and how insane he's life is. It gets to the core of the man of steel.Now that story heads to DVD and I wonder how well it will keep the intital story. From what I've read that kept in that Luthor poisoned Superman with sunlight, which is so bittersweet ironic it makes me cry. You see Superman doing everything he can before his time is up. It brings back the old feeling of what Superman was about and thats crazy science fiction stories about a hero who can move planets, but he might get an ant's head. The realistic surrealism of a universe where a man where's a cape , but people just deal with their lives if everything is normal.
It's been hit and miss in my opinion of the DC Animation straight to DVD market. Superman/Batman Apocalypse won me over with probably one of the best animated Superman fights ever. If you haven't seen him and Supergirl take down Darkseid you missed a hell of a fight. I hope they continue the series, I want to see Batzarro animated.
