I know there has been a lot criticism on Superman Earth One, but I really enjoy it... I love Shane Davis art. I think he does a fantastic job! I hope in Volume to see Lex Luthor.

SOLD!!!! Already pre-ordered at a bargain price. The volume One was excellent despite the fact that Superman is not my preferred super-hero. But there, it was a perfect jump in point for all new and old readers of comic books. So, I hope to have the same caliber or a better one in this volume Two.

I'm actually am looking forward to seeing this new Parasite and the "Daily Planet" Clark.

Hope that it's better than the first volume.

I'm among those who really enjoyed Superman Earth One. I thought it was a great Superman story that showed him as someone who wasn't sure what he wanted to do with his life. Then a threat comes along that is not a traditional Superman threat and he has to become the icon we all know and love. That story ended with him essentially choosing his new path in life. I hope this next volume explores the choices that carry him from there. I also hope we see some more traditional Superman villains and some more drama with Lois and Jimmy. But I think Straczynski has proven to be a good writer for a series like this so I have confidence in his ability to make it awesome.

I also really enjoyed Superman Earth One (and liked Batman Earth One, too), so this second installment is a no-brainer. Looking forward to seeing how the story develops from here.

Wasn't a big fan of the first volume. It wasn't bad, but Birthright was just a far superior story in my opinion.

Having said that, I love the OGN format and Batman Earth One was a great surprise so unless the reviews are absolutely scathing, I'll more likely than not pick it up.

Looks fantastic, this may turn out to be my refuge after Morrison's Action is gone.

I thought the first volume was alright, it was a slow but certainly an interesting start to the story. Hopefully it really picks up in the second part.

Not a fan but tempted to support it just because the costume is closer to the classic.
