I've been wanting to get into Supes for a while now and picked up a couple trades. Pic related is what I've got so far. Any recommendations on what to get next?
Secret Origin is crap and DoS is pretty generic. No idea what's in the Superman vs. Brainiac trade. Your only good choice was Red Son.

I really enjoyed Secret Origin, what's so bad about it?
I agree 100% that Death of Superman was generic as hell. I don't know what i was expecting, but putting It down my reaction was 'well, alright then.'
Pic related is the contents of the Brainiac trade. Got some silver age goodies in it.

The Johns-Busiek era stuff is gold

>I really enjoyed Secret Origin, what's so bad about it?
It's nothing but a soulless retread of the Donner movies, literally every other origin story (Byrne's MoS, Waid's Birthright, Morrison's Men of Steel) is better

Yeah I totally loved seeing the Legion of Super-Heroes from the Donner movies /s
It's more a companion to the Johns run than a proper origin

much obliged fellas
I've got Kingdom Come ordered on the recommendation of my LCS owner. I've also seen All-Star Superman on the shelves so I guess that's my next purchase.

Just because you say "nope" doesn't make your opinion valid.
>>81230240
Just because you call me "pleb" doesn't make your opinion valid.
>>81230228
honestly I'm not a huge fan of Kingdom Come but I guess it's worth a read since a lot of other people seem to like it
>>81230266
I was intrigued by the art, but I imagine there's no surprise there lol
>>81230351
It's a great aesthetic I think. My only complaint about the art for me is that it gets stiff at times. I think Ross is a better cover or poster artist than an interior one.
