A New Take on Superman: Superman Earth One


Here's a description:
This is a for the 21st century. With : EARTH ONE, Straczynski and Davis inject the folk tale and legend that is ’s origin with a modern, vital and forward-looking energy that makes for a refreshing, epic and challenging super-hero adventure. In : EARTH ONE – the first original graphic novel retelling ’s origin — Clark Kent is a man looking for meaning in a new city and an age of failing newspapers, hand-held devices and instant gratification. But when you can fly through the sky and burn objects with a glance – things become a tad more complicated. Doubly so when a fleet of alien ships arrive on your doorstep. : EARTH ONE channels the best tales of with a look toward the future, by two of the brightest talents the industry has to offer. 

I wonder if this will play a part of the new movie?

I was thinking the same thing Vic! This sounds a lot like the premise for the new younger Superman movie.

First, it's funny, that people hated on Marvel for the whole Ultimate line, but those same people will suck this up.
Secondly, I've never been impressed by J Michael Straczynski.
But, if I get an Ipad anytime soon, and the price of digital comics ever gets reasonable, I'll get this.

I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here
