That was fun! Following the events of the "Man of Steel" mini-series, the Earth is suddenly taken into Phantom Zone. The story manages to be both fast and epic at the same time. The art is good, and I like Bendis take on Superman. He is still a boy scout, but we see more of his thoughts and reasoning, then in Jurgens run.
Bendis even gives us some great puns, without damaging the feel of the story.
All in all - a solid book, but not the best place to get into the story for the new readers, as it follows on the mini, and also uses some elements from recent Jurgens run

I did not read the mini-event that happened before this run started, but have always followed Brian Michael Bendis and thus I am starting this Superman title. Bendis is a fabulous writer and storyteller, and this Superman is no different. Within the large, overreaching story we learn little bits about what has happened - Superman's son and his father going off together, Lois, Krypton, etc. We see both Superman's emotional human side and later the side he keeps back, the alien monstrosity if he wanted to unleash himself. Ultimately it is his humanity that sets him apart, since he is not human.

A reader has to be up on the DC comics universe to be able to follow this story line. There were villians popping in and out along with superheros that showed up for a panel and then disappeared. Hard to keep up when that happens. Many panels showed what is obviously meant to be pregnant pauses or contemplative moments that told nothing to the reader. I like my story flow to be a bit more obvious.

An enjoyable take on Superman. Not the best of Bendis but quite good, and I'm looking forward to what's next.
