Me hate Bizarro Superman.
Him worst idea DC comics ever have. Him stupid! Talk funny! Him live by
"Bizarro code:"
Us do opposite of all
Earthly things!
Us hate beauty!
Us love ugliness!
Is big crime to make
anything perfect on BIZARRO WORLD! |
|
|
|
| Superman am
strong, handsome, and morally spotless--boring! But Bizarro Superman am
ugly, stupid, and unethical. Him wonderful! Me hate him!
From his very first appearance
in the 1950s Superman newspaper strip to the episode of Seinfeld devoted
to him, Bizarro has flown (backwards and upside down) into comic fans'
hearts. Tales of the Bizarro World is a purist's delight, collecting 15
full-length stories of Bizarro and friends (Bizarro Lois, Stuporwoman,
Bizarro Krypto, and hordes of copies of Bizarro Number 1). It's full of
great episodes like "Bizarro's Secret Identity" (he's a reporter at the
Daily Htrae--"Earth" spelled backwards) and "Bizarro Goes Sane!"
What's most pleasing, and
most irritating, about the whole Bizarro thing is that sometimes Bizarro
World is opposite Earth, and sometimes it's just... well, bizarre. Writer
Jerry Siegel and artists John Fort, Wayne Boring, and Curt Swan were clearly
having fun when they created Bizarro, and fans can't get enough of the
weirdest guy ever to wear a red cape.
Don't buy Tales of the Bizarro
World! It stupid comic. It not make you laugh!

WHATEVER
HAPPENED
to
the MAN of TOMORROW? |
Written by Alan Moore
Pencilled by Curt Swan
Inked by George Perez & Kurt Schaffenberger |
Paperback
DC Comics
ISBN: 1563893150 |
|
| After all the
hype about the "death" of Superman, here's a much more fitting end to the
Superman legend. Described as an "imaginary story," it begins 10 years
after Superman has died and recounts the events that led up to his final
stand. Alan Moore is a master of this kind of superhero story, and this
edition is a great opportunity for those who may have missed it the first
time around. |

|
|
| "This
is an imaginary story (which may never happen, but then again may) about
a perfect man who came from the sky and did only good. It tells of
his twilight, when the great battles were over and the great miracles long
since performed; of how his enemies conspired against him and of that final
war in the snowblind wastes beneath the Northern Lights; of the two women
he loved and of the choice he made between them; of how he broke his most
sacred oath; and how finally all the things he had were taken from him
save one. It ends with a wink. It begins in a quiet midwestern town,
one summer afternoon in the quiet midwestern future. Away in the
big city, people still sometimes glance up hopefully from the sidewalks,
glimpsing a distant speck in the sky... but no: it's only a bird, only
a plane. Superman died ten years ago. This is an imaginary
story...
"Aren't
they all?"
(Taken
from the first page of the story, written by Alan Moore)
