    I nearly passed on this years ago. The reading was a little dense for me at first. Roger Stern wrote character driven stories that made you see Superman as a real person in Metropolis

    Thanks for the great overview, Omar!
    My copy of this omni is on its way to me. And yes, I would like more Superman omnis before and during the Triangle Era.
    Whenever you compare an older version of an omni with a newer one, the eye on the older one seems to be bigger, at least in the comparisons I've seen. So I think eyes do tend to get bigger with time after multiple readings.
    And please keep doing these overviews! I like to watch them even about books I've already bought or already read.

    Will Payton may not be your Starman but I really enjoyed his series by Roger Stern and Tom Lyle (RIP). Hopefully it gets a DC Finest edition at some point. And no Omar, you're not alone. I would love an omni to bridge the gap between Exile and Triangle v1. Also would love the Byrne era to get a proper omni!

I'm in Australia and there are copies in rhe us for sale but the minimum I can find it for is $300 aud then there is shipping I've never owned it or read it and it would be nice if they repri.ted it so I can fill om the reading order 😢 annoying plus

    What’s your favorite Superman run of all time and what are your thoughts on the newer runs?
    My favorite is Tomasi/Gleason era, there’s a certain warmth and comfort to that run, plus killer artwork. Close second are the early Triangle years (early 90s).
    The current run is very reminiscent of those years, and the Superman family is the biggest it’s ever been. The new Warworld saga was excellent

    Really hope these, and the triangle omnibus, eventually get comixology releases, even if they have to do it in smaller chunks like they did the Golden Age omnis. I don't have high hopes since those weren't finishd.

    The omnibus actually contains Superman issues 23 to 37. The solications for the first printing were incorrect (listing issues 23 to 27) among it's contents. Having just checked Amazon Uk, I see the listing hasn't be corrected.I have the first printing

    are there any collections/hardcovers after the Death & Return, I think it's the mullet era? I'm new at comics, I just started reading and collecting Superman, currently in the Byrne era and I'm laying the path forward. I've found collections from Byrne up to D&R but then no more, just single comics.
