Superman: The Golden Age, Volume 2, Fall 2016
Michael Cho delivers one of the best images this century of the Golden Age Superman.
Superman. In action. Happy and upbeat.
You’d be happy too if you were the most powerful human on earth — even if you had some serious crime to fight.
I’ve gone on the record that a grim and gritty, introspective (even mopey) Superman is not for me. In other words, most of the modern versions of the character.
Call me old school.
Michael says this early era of Superman is his favorite. It’s certainly among mine as well.
It’s a Superman week here on the blog as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of the debut of the amazing Paramount Fleischer Studios Superman cartoons. Those wonderfully produced animated shorts were the very first time Superman hit the big screen.
In a few days, the most recent filmed version of the character will appear in the re-edited “Snyder cut” of Justice League on HBO.
Don’t take any bets on which version I prefer.
