A Memorable Epic

This is everything a Superman epic should be...almost.Superman's battle with a new and improved Parasite is rather rudely interrupted by agents of an intergalactic tribunal headed by a Kenneth Starr type who thinks Superman must own up to the destruction of Krypton. Supes goes on the lam while Eradicator and Team Superman search for him. The Cyborg seems eager to collect the bounty placed on Superman, but his real plans are far more ominous.Although many don't share MHO, I like the Cyborg. Brainiac and Luthor are better, but he's got alot of angst, he striking back at a world that no longer considers him normal.I also liked that Supes wasn't framed for a crime he didn't commit. Though unjustifiably targeted for a witch hunt, he does have a dark page in his family history that he has to own up to.My only complaints are omissions in the TPB. The origin of the smarter Parasite, and Luthor's explanation of how he got the healthy body at the end of The Death of Clark Kent TPB are conspicously misson from the collection, though they clearly needed to be there. It's bound to slightly frustrate readers when they look at the cover gallery and see Luthor on the cover of part 8, but find that all his scenes were cut from the TPB. Also, I believe they made a mistake by having this story at the same time as another crossover was occuring through the DCU titles. They should've planned things a little bit better in that regard. All in all though, I think they should do another big "Space Epic" crossover, so this and Exile could be part of a trilogy.

Good Writing, Average Art

I thought that the book was well written but the art by some of the many illustrators was weak. I really liked Tom Grummet's, and Stuart Immonen's work though.

If you love Superman, then you'll love this book!

This is a must book for all of you die-hard Superman lovers. This book tells the story of Supermans trial. If you liked Superman\Doomsday Hunter\Prey, or Superman vs. Aliens then you'll love this book. Trial of Superman is a graphic novel, which means it tells the story but with drawings on every page. If you missed out on the Trail of Superman when it was in the comics, then buy it now and learn why Superman is such a great comic book.
