Highly recommended but I'd suggest you first read Byrne's six-issue Man of Steel miniseries. It retells Superman's origin story in the aftermath of Crisis On Infinite Earths which rebooted and streamlined DC Continuity. It also redefines Superman's relationships with key figures in his life like Lois Lane, Batman, Lex Luthor, and others.

With tMoS, Byrne set out to make a Superman that was more realistic, down to earth, and above all, more human. This was his signature creative approach, the one that returned Fantastic Fourto hit status. He was, for a moment, so good that he publicly called himself “the Fixer” and nobody called the cops. Other people called it Byrne’s “rehabilitati...
Some pieces of art become a litmus test for the culture that created them. Alanis Morissette’s “Ironic.” Naked Lunchby William S. Burroughs. “Every Breath You Take” by the Police. Ken Kesey’s acid tests. In 1984, Bruce Springtsteen released the song “Born in the U.S.A.” It’s not a song, or a story, but a list of things like “small-town cruelty,” “e...
Despite the objections of the time, the problem with tMoS isn’t that Superman is “weaker.” The problem is that Clark Kent is entirely too strong. Here’s a synopsis of the first issue and “origin story.” See if you can spot the cascade problem. 1. Due to the Birthing Matrix, Superman is born Clark Kent of Earth instead of Kal-El of Krypton. 2. Clark...
This is a little unorthodox, I know. But I’m disappointed to think that anyone could come here looking for modern Superman and his famous origin story. But while Byrne couldn’t give you that, I can. If you want the promise of The Man of Steeland a whole lot more, turn to legendary author J. Michael Straczynski. His two-part character study of Super...
After re-reading, it’s hard not to find this 1,100+ page omnibus to be… thin. Much of its artwork is still beautiful, and some of its ideas are clever. But it’s not good, by nearly any sense of the word. The current complaint about the book is that there’s too much John Byrne. The criticism in the 1980s was that Superman was either more human or le...
The cover to that issue was named one of the "75 Most Iconic DC Covers of All-Time" by Comic Book Resources, [37] while users on that site voted it (along with the rest of Byrne's Superman run) as one of the "Top 100 Comic Book Runs" in 2012. [38] Issue #3, where Superman met Batman, was named by IGN as one of "The Greatest Superman/Batman ...
Sep 6, 2019 · It only seems fitting that issues 2 and 4 should focus on Lois Lane, the most important woman in both Clark Kent and Kal El’s life. And, as Byrne would tell it, one of the most important women in the world. Scaled-up. In Byrne’s hands, Lois is elevated to the equal of not just Clark Kent, but of Kal-El.
