Eighty percent garbage, like most of the other Future State collections, but I did like the manga-esque treatment of Legion of Super-Heroes and the tantalizing glimpse of Superman's descendants in the House of El.

But all the side character stories featuring Lex Luthor and Midnighter (why is he in a Superman book?) and new versions of Mister Miracle, Guardian, and Black Racer were all but unreadable. The Jon Kent segments and Superman on Warworld story at least look nice. I don't understand why the Kara Zor-El version of Superwoman looks like she's dressed to make a guest appearance on "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."

What really annoyed me though was the story order: most of the two-parters appear back-to-back but others are separated by dozens of pages or more. Do not ask me to try to remember what dumb thing Mister Miracle was doing twenty minutes ago. ( )
