So nobody seems to be talking about this book. I for one thought the first issue was pretty good. I really like how the art payed a sort of homage to the 1940's Fleischer Superman opening/first episode where Krypton explodes like a balloon being popped.
I'm a little let down that it didn't really dive deeper into his and his families life as migrant workers. But it did make for a nice and subtle backdrop for the story. It should be praised for how it weaved the Superman myth into this story so invisibly. It never felt like it was telling a story where were supposed to be like "whoa that's like Superman....but not". It felt like it was telling the story as if we we'd never head of Superman at all.
I liked how we were getting the story from his sister's perspective. That made it cool to sort of observe Hernan (Superman) along with her. I actually wish this wasn't a digital first book and regular would that's allowed time to really breath and flourish. It's got some really strong a subtle ideas running around in it.
The verdict for me? It's not just the story of some bad Superman. It's got potential.
