Book Review: Superman, Vol. 4: Mythological

Superman, Volume 4: Mythological Superman, Volume 4: Mythological by Brian Michael Bendis

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This 9-issue book wraps up Bendis' run on Superman and it's...not horrible. It features a lot of people talking about Superman, analyzing Superman, Superman even gets analyzed. The first few issues are kind of blah. A big problem is raised with the United Planet, it becomes the focus of reporters and federal investigators...and it's kind of handwaved away.

And then we get the main mythological arch which is kind of interesting but is really not the sort of story you end a run on, although I do like some of the sentiment and character stuff for Lois.

So overall, not bad, but still kind of disappointing.
