Shawn Towner reviewed Superman by J. Michael Straczynski
Review of 'Superman' on 'Storygraph'
2 stars
Basically the first 20 minutes of a Spiderman movie. Superman has super-awesome powers that make him super-awesome and he can get all sorts of super-awesome jobs, but he has to deal with the reality that maybe he's meant to do more than play sports or make buttloads of money. Then a bunch of aliens try to blow up Earth, Superman beats them down, fake interviews himself, then uses that fraudulent interview to lie his way onto the Daily Planet. In fact, this is exactly the plot of the first 20-30 minutes of the first Spiderman movie. I don't even like comic books, but even I know Superman deserves better than this.
