Superman: Birthright

Truly excellent tale of reimagining The Man of Tomorrow among many of his eternally retold story, through every era of our own. Timeless and always inspiring the readers to do good with enough courage and bravery. Hope will never die, as long as Superman is around. And we can do good things towards others, no matter how bad our world is. Planet Earth in our reality will never be perfect, but at least we can make it better, one step at a time. Excellent, DC Comics!

A phenomenal story of Superman that outlined his origin, important parts of his life where he had to deal with his powers and how different he was from other people, his fascination in different earth lifeforms, his desire to know more about where he came from, his motivation to become a symbol of hope and his heroism despite dealing with grief of his parents and homeworld and constant criticism from a large population from the city. It also captures how well he conceals his identity as the confident, assertive and powerful Superman by transitioning into the very shy, awkward and frail Clark Kent. My favourite part about this comic is how it depicts Superman as both a altruistic and trustworthy hero who does the best he can to protect life on earth and ensure everyone is safe, and a powerful badass with fiery eyes who doesn't torelate those who try to hurt innocent people and wreak havoc in the city.

Long story short, I had to force myself not to binge read this masterpiece in one night. Absolutely incredible. Beautifully drawn, masterfully written. Highly recommended. Would definitely re-read this again. If there is a Superman story to adapt it is this one. Hands down.
