Sometimes each story is part of one big story and sometimes it's a totally separate story but they all continue seamlessly and it makes for some enjoyable reading. The only downside are the pages are newsprint quality and the artwork is not as awesome as some other books.

Byrne's art in Volume 1, however, was not what I was used to from his previous work.
That appears to have changed in Volume 2, as Byrne cleans up Superman nicely. The ... Read More

What you need to know before reading this book:
1) Superman stories published from 1938 to 1986 (commonly called "Pre-Crisis Superman") were wiped out of continuity and is no longer part of the Superman Canon.
2) An event called "Crisis on Infinite Earths" cleaned up DC Comics continuity and recreated the DC Universe in 1985/6. All comics from that point to the present are referred to as the "Post-Crisis" stories.
3) The "Post-Crisis" Superman began with 1986's "The Man of Steel" miniseries ... Read More
