I liked most of the book until the ending collapsed psychedelic into a cliche-did not know where to end it ouroboros the ending is the beginning sort of end. I also found that the afterword essay frankly, sucked. I skimmed it, it was primarily comic-book/philosophical roots of Superman spiel I'm already familiar with, maybe someone unfamiliar with that whole thing might be entertained or informed, but I doubt it. I would suggest it with the caveat that it has a glaring weakness in its hackneyed end. Although, I might catch up with the other volumes of this series but don't hold me to that.
