    Default Garth Ennis & Superman

    So I just read Hitman #34 and was struck by how capably and even-handedly Garth Ennis wrote Superman. For a guy who's known for works like "Preacher" and "The Boys" (a decidedly anti-superhero book), Ennis writes this issue almost like a love-letter to Big Blue. It was also cool how he used Tommy Monaghan, a sort of everyman anti-hero type, to show how the average guy perceives Superman, with a sort of reverence and awe.

    Anyway, a couple questions here:

    1. How did everyone else feel about this issue?
    2. Has Ennis written Superman in any other books?

    Thanks.

    I really liked it, some readers assume that someone like Ennis would prefer darker superheroes over Superman but no, it turns out he's not really into traditional superheros but Superman is the exception. At least that's the vibe I get
