The key problem with this whole saga is that is not for new readers; in the sense that cross-references and a huge previous knowledge of the characters and their villains is requiered. Picked up the collected edition; it was my first green lantern comics. I found it mediocre since I couldn't understand it fully for the reasons just mentioned.

Seriously overrated if you're not a Superman fan. It was the first superman comic I ever bought, and though it was dissappointing given all the love it recieves. A key problem is that Morrison cross-references and storyline assumes that you know a lot about the mythos of superman, which wasn't my case. Also, I found the story simplistic and dull.

Really enjoyed. Simple story with a lot of actions, but interesting social commentary on slavery, and the reconcilation of humanity after years of division and wars. I reccommend it's reading. Some of the dialogue could be better. Some times it get's so action-packed that it becomes a little simplistic. But we came to see Hulk SMASH, right?

Best. Superman. Story. Ever. I recommend it 100%. Long live the URRS :)
