I vaguely recall “hearing” about this book last year and being mildly interested, but due to price never followed up with it. I saw it again several weeks ago at a Barnes and Noble or Booksamillion “on sale” for about $40 or $50ish, but still passed on it.
Then a couple weeks ago I saw it at a Half-Price Books, but passed on it due to financial constraints…mainly tied to all those 3-D covers from DC.
Not blowing all my “extra” cash on those this month, I stopped in at Half-Price books tonight, figuring if they had it, I’d get it…otherwise I’d suck it up for losing out on it for the price.
They did, and I bought it, and now quite look forward to reading through it!
Based on flipping through and noticing an “about the author” (the guy who “helped” “Brainiac 5”)…looks like it’s the same author of The Batman Vault. Which is neat, as I’d already thought of this as being a similar sort of thing.
And given I’d consider myself more a Superman fan than Batman fan…just didn’t seem right to pass on this when I didn’t on that!
