Pre-Flashpoint Superman; Was it that bad?

[Dispenser Of Truth]

Really?
Because, unless I'm mistaking it with something else (the run that starts with an ex journalist writing a novel about basically Golden Age Superman, which comes to life, right?), it is collected in France.

Awesome, glad some people can get their hands on it. Also, #599 and #600, while not part of the 'year', are fantastic one-shots, and #610 (maybe mostly part of a larger story, I don't recall offhand) has a great moment at the end.
