The story is about a boy unfairly sent to prison who uses weird telekinetic powers to protect himself from abusers. No, wait, that's the plot of Hard Time by Steve Gerber. Well, it's also the plot of this story. The writing is good, the art is great, but I'm concerned that the first issue reads like a blatant rip-off of Hard Time. The setting changed a bit -- Hard Time started with a school shooting, and Home started with a border crossing -- but still pretty much the same thing.

Haven't read Flash for a while, but I thought I'd check out the first Infinite Frontier issue. It was an enjoyable story, a good jumping-on issue, and almost felt like a Justice League story for a bit with all the guest stars plus Mister Terrific. There were several artists on this issue, but their styles mostly blended, and overall the book looked pretty good. I wish Marco Santucci was fast enough to helm his own book -- he's my favorite of these (and also drew the best issues of Shazam!).

Nice little story. My favorite Future State book so far. Gene Luen Yang needs to always write Superman. Also, Ben Oliver's false faces are magnificently drawn.

Fun story, similar to Baltazar and Franco's other comics, but loosely based on the Smallville TV series and a 13-year-old Clark who rescues townsfolk as the "Superman of Smallville". Considering how well this format does for Raina, this hopefully works out better for Baltazar-Franco than their floppy minis for $3 or $4 only available at comic shops. A few unresolved plot threads in this book suggest they want to do more in this series. Seems funny that Clark's called Superman here at 13 years old, but whatever. Tom Welling always looked 10 years older than he was supposed to be.

I enjoyed it, the conversation with Jon and Clark is great.

The first story was similar to Superman vs. Muhammad Ali, and it was great. The second story -- Lois made a perfectly logical decision. I enjoyed both, it felt very Bronze Age, like World's Finest.

This issue was fun, the heroes business kinda makes sense, and the art was fantastic.

Rather than a JSA story, this issue is a one-and-done coda to Stargirl's story, with really great art by Todd Nauck. Geoff wrote some really great DC stories and series at DC, and I wish him luck on his next projects. Was #12 the first issue that came out monthly? For a while it felt it was quarterly or less.

I enjoyed all the stories, but I think the kindergarten one was the best -- it had a good story and fantastic art.

Great issue. Better than most of DC's anniversary giants. Daniel Warren Johnson's Pa Kent story is the best. Having said that, I think the Mark Buckingham and Chris Sprouse stories were not well-served by the weird coloring. I can understand doing a black and white Batman book, but the coloring gimmick in this book doesn't work for stories where the artists just draw the contours.

This book feels like pre-Crisis continuity, and I love it. Lex lives in Smallville as a young teen, hates everyone but Clark, etc. I wish Mark Waid could write Superman full time.

It was fun, and the art was great. Really looking forward to the JSA book.

The Kevin Conroy story is a gut-puncher. I would love to know the identities of the people he's writing about. (The miniseries on page 3 is probably "Kennedy" -- hope it wasn't E.G.M. -- and the film on page 4 is probably "The Face of Fear.") As someone who grew up watching Bewitched and The Waltons, it's nuts to think there were still TV people so phobic they wouldn't hire a gay lead actor in the 1990s.

The 1-star reviews make me wonder if those guys also give 1 star to books about asian, black or women superheroes without reading them. Or are they just afraid of gay heroes?

Loved it. I wish the regular Superman titles were more like this. Chris Burnham's cartooning is amazing.

The first issue was great. For fans of Silver Age Superman, this Elseworlds story is like a miracle. It's an alternate history of DC's Earth-1 superheroes, and every page turn is as exciting as was Alan Moore's final Bronze Age Superman story. The Allreds' weird art is perfect for Silver Age Superman -- bold lines and colors. I hope the team does more Silver/Bronze Age Superman after this one ends.

Haven't read the story yet, but the art is fantastic. It's great to see actual line art instead of Alex Ross wannabes. Only thing I'd change is -- Superman's red trunks are ridiculously huge in some panels.

Now that is a comic book. Wow! I'm all in.

Reminds me of a Bob Haney story or maybe Superman vs. Spider-man (the first one). Lots of action, guest stars, everything happens fast. Comics really were more fun in the 1970s. If all the DCs were more like this one, I'd be buying several every week. The art was great, although there was one panel where Superman smashes into something iconic and I couldn't quite figure out what was going on.

Really enjoyed this issue. It's a great origin story for a character Mark Waid co-created years ago.

The cartooning in this book is amazing. There is no other comic being published that is comparable. The story is cool, Brett Parson's art is awesome. It's rare that a comics artist can accurately draw kids or backgrounds or period pieces or emotions, but Brett can do it all. Also kudos to Moreno Dinisio's coloring. I can't wait to see what they do next.

SO much better now. Thanks, Tom and Bruno.

One of the best Superman stories of all time. Really hope this team makes some more Superman stories.
