Okay, this is a little spoiler for All-Star Superman #8 but it so perfectly sums up why everyone (and I mean everyone) should be reading this book that I had to share.

So in issue #8 Superman meets the Bizarro Justice League. He meets Bizarro Batman...but he doesn't because Bizarro Batman doesn't exist because when he was a child Bizarro Bruce Wayne was shot by his parents. Holy crap. Holy crap. That is the single greatest idea I have heard of in a long time.

What a ridiculously good book. Everyone go buy it. Buy five copies. Morrisson rules.

I can't tell you how much I enjoy this series. Every issue is so worth the price that it could be 12 dollars and I wouldn't care. I think it's one of the best things that has happened to Superman since Bruce Timm.

This is the one book that is so good that I don't even mind that it is late every issue. Morrison is very hit or miss for me, but when I click with his work I love it. I love this comic but his Batman is leaving me flat so far.

Morrison rules.
He just does.
The single greatest living comic creator in the world.
Was that going too far?
Nahhh

PS I'm still deciphering the Invisibles

I finally got caught up on All Star Superman and I loved it!

JC, I didn't guess the Batman part before I read it but I definitely LOVED the bizarro Justice League!!! I think Batman was the best but the ugly Wonder Woman statue and the dumbfounded Green Lantern were not far behind.

Yeah, this series is an instant classic. This series is a classic on par with I feel like Morrison is breathing new life into Superman comics, especially for people who have never really gotten into DC comics and/or Superman comics.

If you have a pulse and you can read English, you should be reading All Star Superman! Very Happy
