I'm pretty sure one of the stories had absolutely nothing to do with the Fortress of Solitude.

I was STOKED when I found this collection at the library, as I'm a huge Superman fan. I haven't been able to read many comics, so it was great to dive in. Some comics had nothing to do with the title, though, and we're either really long or incomplete, which was a bummer. Still loved reading through some classics, though!

On October 7th 2013 I walked into the second floor reading area in the Merrill-Cazier library and found this book left on an end table. I sat down and read it before my Spanish class and found it a very entertaining way to pass the time before my Spanish class. Its not an amazing comic but I was really happy to stop thinking about school for a few minutes and read about Superman.

Liked most of these stories but didnt really get the last one, felt like you had to read earlier stories to understand it.
Was surprised they didnt have the Alan Moore stories "For The Man Who Has Everything" and "Whatever Happened To The Man of Tomorrow".
