Probably, because I like it very much too, but I still prefer Secret Identity. :)

Oops, good catch. Busiek is another favourite of mine alongside Waid, especially for Astro City and JLA/Avengers. And Superman: Secret Identity. :p

Alan Moore.

Promethea, Watchmen, V for Vendetta, Top 10, From Hell, Swamp Thing anytime.

And I like the way he talks and thinks in "The Mindscape of Alan Moore" documentary....

Mark Waid is among my favourite superhero writers, I love his FF run and his JLA run. Irredeemable was pretty good, but a bit too stretched out (the last page is a great homage though). Kingdom Come...

From Hell...

Thanks for the input, guys. I enjoy very much Sean Howe's Marvel book, really detailed, but I wanted some confirmation on that specific subject. Would have been a strange situation if it had happened.

In his book Marvel Comics: The Untold Story, page 272 of the hardcover edition, author Sean Howe says that Bill Sarnoff from Warner Publishing called Marvel EiC Jim Shooter in 1984, just after Secret...

I'd say it was much more that that.

Nothing against Conway, but Kurt Busiek was at the top of his game here and I'm actually glad that things didn't work out in the 1980s so that we could get the...

He's much more suited for Batman, you only have to see his Daredevil run with Bendis.

JMS doesn't have a hope in hell anyway IMO.

Morrison - JLA, Superman, Batman, X-Men, Doom Patrol, Animal Man, We3, The Invisibles, The Filth... all amazing runs or astonishing creator-owned...

Oooh, this is definitely going to be a thing of beauty. Hope the binding will be solid and flexible enough - like the Bone hardcover single volume edition, for example.

Speaking of, I also prefer...

And some more double splash pages from Promethea (couldn't put all 4 in the previous post):

Re: Promethea, it's also perhaps the most personal work of Alan Moore, presenting his views on magic with a quest through the different dimensions of the Kabbala.

And JH Williams III art changes...

Thanks, I'll check it out. Not as all-encompassing as the Marvel book, but seems interesting on the more specific subject of the creators of Superman.


P.S. And what about this one?...

I get the same impression that DC is somehow keeping this as low-profile as it can - well, not too much since there's a film coming, but the publisher doesn't go out of its way to advertise such a...

The Wiki page gives a good order, I think:

Yes, that surprised me too, but it's probably not so well-known. Great story, one of my favourites:...

At the bottom, just below 10.
That's what I checked, I didn't even try to guess when I saw what the questions were.

What surprises me even more is that it ranks above Reign of the Supermen (14) and Funeral for a Friend (20).


And Red Son at #6, above For All Seasons, Action 775 and Secret Identity? Seriously?

And here are #25-1 (and again, no CBRnews thread in the forum):

#1 is...

Or All-Star Superman.

dupersuper, after checking, that trade does contain the Red/Blue story (Superman #162), so it's probably the 1987 edition of Greatest Stories Ever Told that you had in mind. :)

Aaaand here are #75-26:

That's the only one with most of the stories you mentioned, the other two have different selections, as shown on the linked page. :)

It's not above them, that's just a list of nominees in no particular order, as it is pointed out in the introduction. ;)

Kurosawa, after you mark your choices you have a "Vote" button at the...
