This story sort of takes the DiDio "mandate" of a dark and depressing DCU, filled with joyless superheroes who are unhappy with their lives, and kicks it in the teeth, doesn't it?

I finally got around to reading this issue. I originally skipped it because I wrongly assumed it would be another forgettable filler issue like we've seen too many times from Superman, but I was pleasantly surprised. This is about as perfect a Superman story that I've read in a long time. Bravo to all involved.
