Volume 2 of All Star Superman is a fantastic edition to add to any collection.
Having enjoyed the First Volume greatly,I was anticipating the much loved pop culture Icon returning for even more radical adventures.
The Writing and Art are seemless and would recommend this to any long time fans or first timers buyers of this genre.

I'm a long time Grant Morrison fan (Arkham Asylum, Batman: Gothic, his revival of the JLA, and his brilliant run on the New X-Men jump to mind first), and what he truly does as well, and often better, than anyone else is put a new spin on classic characters.
For instance, his idea of a way for Lex Luthor to kill Superman is so simple and yet so elegant you can't help but wonder how nobody thought of this before. His "Zibarro" is a tragic character of Shakespearean proportions. He is a "creator" in the comics field of the highest order, not simply killing off a character here or there, but often substantially adding to the mythos of the characters he writes for.
Frank Quitely's art is also a treat, also seemingly simple yet elegant. His art enhances the story telling without distracting from it, which is saying something given the many over-stylized comic artists out there, past and present.
You won't often find a book on Amazon with consistent 5 Star ratings, but this series is absolutely one of them. For more Morrison & Quitely, check out those New X-Men collections (unfortunately Quitely doesn't draw every single one, but Morrison is still great, as is Quitely when he's the artist), and "Earth 2", another one with Superman and the JLA, vs. the CSA on Earth 1 (as the other Lex calls his anti-matter planet).

The Incredible end to Grant Morrison's All Star Superman is even better than the first volume.
I very highly recommend both novels to anyone.

Some products on this site pack up more than a thousand reviews! It has got me wondering because, frankly, how can you write a thousand different things about the same product? Here, I'll only try to add that this series has been such a fresh take on Ol' Supe that we are left to ask for more. This book is a very strong statement from the Distinguished Competition!

This book reprints All-Star Superman #7-12. The story and art are excellent, and the coloring (digital) by Jamie Grant is absolutely amazing! The story will appeal to older readers, as it deals with the classic theme of mortality. Yet there is no profanity or other material that would make it inappropriate for younger readers. This series raises the bar for graphic storytelling. The only reason I gave it five stars is because that's all there are.
