What a great premise unfortunately squandered by trying (and failing) to turn the story of Superman into a comedy. The boy that would become Superman crash lands in Great Britain rather than America and grows up to be a bumbling idiot even when he's trying to help the country. It's as if he acted like Clark Kent even after the glasses were off. On top of that, the press has turned on him, and it seems like everyone doesn't like him. This is the source of most of the book's gags, and they're really not funny; they're just sad (a running joke has his parents trying to abandon him because they don't think he should be using his powers).Basically, if you like Superman, then you should definitely avoid this book. It's not even worth wasting the short time it takes to read it.
