Good collection. I actually liked some of the more sci-fiy ones. And a superman story I actually kind of liked. Who knew?

A better take on some traditional characters. I'm not a comic fan though. just trying our Alan Moores works. :/ ( )

Not all stories are equally good, but the Superman and Batman ones are excellent. "The Killing Joke" remains one of the best Batman stories I've read, and it's still shocking and impressive and, well, good even after having read it a bunch of times. "Whatever Happened To The Man Of Tomorrow" was good, but in that case my expectations were a little too high, I think; the Superman story I liked best in this collection was "For The Man Who Has Everything". ( )

A better collection of disparate tales in a major comic mythos you shall not find. ( )

I didn't much care for the Vigilante story, but "Mogo Doesn't Socialize" and "Brief Lives" reminded me of D.R. and Quinch with their alien irony. The "Man of Tomorrow" story was good, which ends with the notion that Superman has faked his own death in order to live a normal life. "The Killing Joke" is the classic here, reading very much like a movie and making great use of recurring images to tie the narrative together. ( )
